heart of glass

you say you love me and yet i see no evidence in the flesh you come up behind me to give me a surprise kiss you've stolen my heart, my glass heart, so fragile that with one touch it could shatter. Why must i feel submissive to appease you why do i have to not be my true self to keep you holding on to me you said you loved me and never let me go i see the evidence in my eyes that i am the one who changed you told me of a life, a life that could be ours one with gumdrops and sugarcane sweetness the kind that every young girl dreams of, a life of happiness and joy, something i wish and outside me reach i feel for you on the first day i saw you you had me from hello you had me at the moment we had out first kiss you've stolen my heart, my glass heart. Dreams and tales are made from the wise to always wish for what you can't not have to hide behind when times are tough to give you a mask and tell everyone it's fine If you make the wrong choices you can build up a wall a wall that can protect you from the hard destructive fall the fall that after you fell for what seemed like the one then sends you into a downward spiral and then a crash i thought i could make your puzzle pieces fit all that seems to be is that i glued pieces together trying to make it look like it worked, another mask for you this time don't just break my heart, crush it and grind it into the dirt while you're at it too Who needs a heart truly it just ends up getting in the way sugar, spice, and everything nice, that's what little girls are made of as for me, i have a little added ingredient, vinegar. I am who i am there is no one else that is as special and unique as me you may think you know the real me but honestly who really knows themselves I'll be your princess as long as you can be my prince sweep me off my feet and carry me away from here... lies fairy tales are made to give the young girls a mask, something to ease the pain truth and lies and pain and selfish acts are the real things that exist in this world nothing is ever gained if you lost everything before you had it you stole my heart, my pretty little glass heart
