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...
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

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...
