The  frozen wasteland of my heart

The frozen wasteland of my heart

Trying to light a fire, with the embers of a love now lost, loneliness bites through me, now my heart must pay the cost

Looking for some remnants like kindling for my your fire, just a few scraps of happiness, to light my funeral pyre

Heart beats so slowly, the pain just don't seem to stop, alone again in no man's land, i feel like such a flop

I wonder is it just my fault, why again this love has died, i know i gave you everything, you know how hard i tried

I start to search deep inside myself, riddled with self doubt, the silence is deafening but still hear my pain cry out

Why me, what have I done, once again I'm all alone, left with just some old tattered memories and pictures on my phone

So here I am once again, on the frozen wasteland of my heart, cold, tired and tear stained, since we've been apart

But I refuse to give up hope, one day I'll find some sun, a love will come to warm my heart and I'll know that she's the one
