Venus in Pisces

I closed the door, 

My world went dark, 

I need endless nights to hide, 

I don't want to see my reflection, 

I can't face myself now, 

I can't gaze into the eyes, that couldn't hold your affection, 

Love is something, that no one around me has, 

And just like everyone else, 

I couldn't make love last. 

I'm disappointed for my heart, 

I apologize to my body, 

I apologize to my soul, that couldn't let hope go, 

I'm disappointed in the delusion I created, 

It carried me through the days, 

When you shut me out of your world, 

I grew patient with the pain.

I can't let go of the night, 

It hides my private cries, 

It hides me out of sight, 

Feeling exposed to those who knew our love, 

I'm flesh, feelings, broken spirit, crying soul,

I don't want naysayers seeing me drown in the emotions

I'm wearing on my skin, 

The tears won't stop, I'm shattered

Into a million pieces. 

I had to hide my wins, 

It never sounded like love, 

When you put me down, 

"Sorry, baby", after shame settled in, 

It never left you proud, 

Broke your promise to never do what would hurt

Me again, 

Friday, Saturday, Sunday

Monday, here you go breaking me to pieces again.

You want to kiss and make up, 

I don't want your secret kisses, 

You have trouble tellin'em I'm your Miss', 

Nothing feels better than the truth, 

Tell it to me, kiss my ears with it. 

When do I get my chance for love, 

I deserve to receive love, 

I closed the door.

The night falls heavier now, 

Ow Lord, just let me hide, all the emotions that

I don't understand inside, 

Let my tears learn to dry, 

Please give me the night, hold the sunrise, 

Help me to hide my broken heart, 

I closed the door, 

I don't want to hurt no more. 

I closed the door.
