Memories of the past
In pieces like broken glass
But it comes as no surprise
In my heart I knew we would never last

I heard all of your lies
Still you've never told me why
When I wiped away all your tears
You left me alone to cry?

Well all the games are over
And all the lies are through
Although my heart is as big as the sun
There aint a place in it for you!
You took me to my limit
You had me in your trance
But when it comes down to you and me
You don't get a second chance!


Every single day I lived for you
Holding onto a love that wasn't true

I need to fly away
And leave you far behind
Forget every pain you caused
And put you to the back of my mind

But it's so hard when love is all you've known
I gave it everything I had, sacrificing all I owned
And now I'm looking back, standing in the ashes that remain
Looking into my empty soul and wondering what I gained...

But now the games are over
And all the lies are through
Although my heart is as big as the sun
There aint a place in it for you!
You took me to my limit
You had me in your trance
But when it comes down to you and me
You don't get a second chance!


(Instrumental)

I need to fly away
And leave you far behind
Forget every pain you caused
And put you to the back of my mind

But it's so hard when love is all you've known
I gave it everything I had, sacrificing all I owned
And now I'm looking back, standing in the ashes that remain
Looking into my empty soul and wondering what I gained...

But now the games are over
And all the lies are through
Although my heart is as big as the sun
There aint a place in it for you!
You took me to my limit
You had me in your trance
But when it comes down to you and me
You don't get a second chance!


Memories of the past
In pieces like broken glass
But it comes as no surprise
In my heart I knew we would never last...

I wrote this song across the space of two weeks and it was just a vent for some emotions I was feeling at the time. The style is Meatloaf-esq and I have to say this isn't one of my best songs.

Try to enjoy ^^
