The Heartless Man
Each time I told myself This time it will be different But it never was I was so naive To believe all his lies One after the other I cried and cried When telling him how I felt A part of me told me My tears won't mean a thing to him Another said, "give it another try" Giving another try got me what i always get Being treated the same way Like he never heard me tell him What hurt me What he does that hurts me Why marry me If this is what he was gonna do to me Why paint those beautiful dreams If pain and tears were all he would give me Why make all those promises If all he planned to do Was lie to me With each lie, he kills me each day I struggle to get up and get on Never a day since I married him Has gone by with me wondering Why he causes me so much pain A heartless man indeed I tried to give a heart Shared my thoughts and feelings with Yet there was never a spark After tonight I'm convinced This heartless man Will always be that Heartless
