Turned Away

Did you ever see me?            
Did you really care?            
Did I waste my time            
stuck inside a prayer?            
Almost felt like someone            
Finally good enough            
Was it even worthit,            
When times were getting tough            
           
Those words you always speak            
they pop up everywhere          
Promises you couldn't keep            
you were never really there         
Now you've turned so cold            
got nothing left to say,            
you've frozen up my world            
when you decided to turn away            
           
Didn't it mean anything?            
Did I ever take a stand?            
Did you actually even notice            
my heart was in your hand?            
Maybe it's just me            
started all over again            
Maybe I could not see            
what's driving me insane            
           
Those words you always speak            
they pop up everywhere          
Promises you couldn't keep            
you were never really there            
Now you've turned so cold            
got nothing left to say,            
You've frozen up my world            
when you decided to turn away         
           
Why take it so serious?            
Did I go too fast?            
Did I ever learn from            
the lessons from the past?            
Now I'm back to square one            
don't know where I belong        
when your face is gone        
all of me feels wrong            
           
Could never give you the world            
even though I wanted to          
Would still lay down my life,            
if it meant protecting you,            
So much that I adore            
and it hurts in all I do            
Each time when you ignore            
my thoughts keeps crumbling too            
           
Those words you always speak            
they pop up everywhere           
Promises you couldn't keep            
you were never really there            
Now you've turned so cold            
got nothing left to say,            
You've frozen up my world            
when you decided to turn away       
           
You just turned away...
