Heart Under Lock and Key

Iโ€™m here thinking of the good times
wondering was it the same for you?
left me alone picking up broken pieces
never even had the guts to explain it

believing I was so damn important
falling down just thinking about it
one moment pretending that you cared
the next you were gone, nowhere to be found

would it be enough?
If you broke down and told the truth
does that even matter now?
with your heart under lock and key

there was a day you said we were so similar
acted interested in everything I had to say
nodded along mindlessly in agreement  
was I just there to fill an empty space?

wish you could of hated me a little bit more
screamed at me and called me an asshole
maybe then I would have seen an ounce of caring
had me stuck in limbo wondering

would it be enough?
If you broke down and said Iโ€™m right
does that even matter now?
with my heart under lock and key

shouldnโ€™t have ever let my guard down
maybe it was just made up in my head
I only wish you could of explained the knife
sticking out of my back
