Heartache is a kind of death..

Did you know you can actually hear your heart break..?

(Oh heart of mine, why do you always hurt me so..?So much more than you'll ever know..)

That you'll do whatever--even call for death--to dull the ache..

(The pain you inflict on me deranges, each shatter brings my mind to closer to lunacy..

My soul you leave at death's door, scarred to the bone by this treacherous agony..)

I never knew; until I met you..

Did you know that falling in love is a temporary insanity..?

That your entire world crumbles when you come back to reality..

(I wish I could just break down and cry and cry, till my heart feels restored and content..

But you need me to suffer, and what greater suffering is there than rivers of tears, unshed..?)

I never knew; until I met you..

Did you know that you can die a thousand deaths and somehow still breathe..?

That nothing at all--not even sleep--brings any solace or reprieve..

(I don't think I can stand this torture for much longer..

With each passing second, this weakness in me keeps getting stronger..)

I never knew; until i met you..

Did you know that deception lies in every corner, waiting to attack..? 

That once your innocence is destroyed.. you can never get it back..

(Death calls sweetly from the shadows; urging me to give in, tempting me to nothingness...

But deep down I know it lies, it only wants to devour my soul; I know you're not supposed to yearn for the blasphemous..)

I never knew; until I met you..

Did you know that unshed tears burn a hole in the very core of your being..?

That you can smile to the world, while every nerve in your body is violently screaming..

(I keep trying to tell myself that this pain is just temporary and tomorrow the sun might shine bright..

But this heartache is so crippling that no matter how hard I try, I cannot see past this dark, gloomy night..)

I never knew; until I met you..
