A heart that always break

These four words screaming inside my head
"I love you, but..", that's what you clearly said
Got me feeling like I was hanging by a thread.

Led me up the garden path
and dazzled in just one look
Lured me to your bait, in a trice,
I can't get off your hook
Behind my facade,
you can still read me like a book.

So please let me go, let me go, do it fast
Best believe this romance isn't going to last
You're just turning my life into downcast.

I don't want to be your servile lover
A subservient, constant pushover
Fooling someone doesn't make you clever.

I don't want to be someone you just forsake
Or even a deep gash persist to ache
So I can't be the heart you always break.
