Broken Fairytale

Tell me why these tears are falling from my eyes....if I really don't care anymore..
Tell me.....Why the only thing I can't forget are these memories of before
Tell me why you can't just set me free...
Why can't you move on and let me do the same
Your always there...your memory haunts me...
When I pass you my eyes always stray...

I can't figure out what to do....
It's been so long and I still can't forget you
I can't forget the smile you would flash...when you knew I was mad...
I can't forget the look you would give me....When I was broken in half....
You still have a grip on my heart
And your ripping it apart

I can't sleep I sit and stare at where you once used to lay...
I search my mind , for one reason that would of made you stay...
As I remember how it felt to have you beside me....
I could sleep and I'd be so free....in my dreams...
I hate to sleep now because I only see your face...
When you walked away you left me in an unknown state....

I Sleep with that old shirt you forgot to take
It's the only way I can sleep with a smile on my face...
I still drink out of that old coffee mug you bought so long ago..just for me..
I'm looking for a way to prove to you .....if I could just make you see....that you still love me...
The pictures of you still hang in the hallway...so a part of me still believes your here...
But I will never be able to see you again without her....

I'm lying in my own tears...if only a inch of water could drown me....
I'm laying face up....looking at any type of sign...I might not ever see...
I hear a knock upon the door...I always think it's you.......
I Jump up just like I always do...
I still have faith...hidden away....
I open it and sadly it's not your face.....

Last night as I lay broken upon my cold floor...make up now gone...
One tear streams down my face, As I realize I'm all alone...
Who says you can't die of a broken heart
Your grip is getting tighter and you've already tore me apart...
Here's the secret to a story that noone has been brave enough to tell...
But as I lie there dying I say...Love is just a fairytale....A broken fairytale....
