Somewhere in Myself That's Lost

Why does this hurt, this sickness of pain in my heart? I knew once what it was to be vulnerable to love. I feel like I've lost it, Lost it somewhere inside me Knowing only what it is to feel this aching pain Missing the dear ones that I thought that loved me

The broken heart of my soul The part that I once thought that I had, is now somehow missing Missing that part of myself that I thought I once knew so well

So sad to say good-bye to someone that you thought you knew so well Missing the part of the love and joy I had with him. Just to know that he was there in my life To say the things that were so dear to me But was all lies, just lies that were from my eyes

So torn up, Torn up from pain and anguish Just to know only what it felt to have pure joy and love Then ripped from my heart and shattered Shattered to the point that I feel no love from anyone Knowing that I don't know how to trust people that are close to me

Yearning for my heart to know how to start to trust so easily To believe in people like I once had, To believe in trusting them and feel no anguish

My heart craves to know love again, To know that the heart of my soul won't be haunted by regret and torment. Just to say I trust you and I love you are more than just words, They're more worth than life itself.
