Lyrics The Broken Heart's Delight - Scratch21

The Broken Heart's Delight

There was a better day, unlike today
Where the vision inside decided to stay
Took the words that were true and a picture of you
To the room where they rotted away, and then I
Headed back to find out where it all began
Now I know this pen will never leave my hand
Won’t you sing me to sleep, I cannot stand the leak
From the faucet that runs dry
It drips like the tear from my eye
I kept the hope deep inside to keep you alive
Though my arms hurt from writing, my heart’s paralyzed
It continues to serve me although I’m not worthy
I can’t help but feel intertwined;
I found it
Started with a feeling that has broken
(Has broken down)
On the verge of running, now I’m leaving
(I'm leaving town)
I feel cheated, borderline defeated
I feel empty, there’s nothing that can help me
Paint a picture of a certain kind of love then throw it all away
Help me figure out what this is all about;
we’re both in this to stay
Run away, Get away, start to say «I'm okay»
Distance has no meaning when the truth
Just goes on, and on, and on, and on with you
I’m singing songs of the broken heart’s delight
The message sent to your stereo tonight
It takes some time when you think that you have won
The journey back that you’ve only just begun
{Chorus Two]
I’m singing songs of the broken heart’s delight
The message sent to your stereo tonight
It takes some time when you think that you have won
The journey back that you’ve only just begun
