Deep
It's a lie really to call it a loss anymore
When the truth is I already lost what I was here for
I gave the love more than a few fair shots
Ricochet from each bullet left scars on the heart
The heart shattered so hard it broke the soul
A pain so deep it needs depths to console
It's not the threat that makes me so afraid
I'm more afraid of the weight of the pain
I thought one shouldn't have to make all the sacrifices
Seems the weight gets too heavy when it's all one sided
And yet I still feel bad for not wanting to feel anymore
I don't know if it's breaking my heart more because it's wrong, or just hard
