I rented out my heart to you
I thought you’d keep it good
Never asked my monthly due
As any landlord would

But you took me for a ride
The place is now a mess
The damages can’t be denied
Have left me in distress

No apologies or anything
You left behind no sign
A fool I was to expect something
From a girl without a spine

Now I’ll keep my heart with me
Never let it out on rent
Though it may seem a bit empty
I will feel a lot more content

We took a pencil and we drew
Memories on a page
Now the same memories I
Am finding hard to erase

Though Fate could not bring us together
You’ll hold a special place
A special place close to my heart
That nobody can erase

How should I let go of you?
Should I burn all photographs?
Should I erase every embrace
Every tear and every laugh?
Should I delete the memories
That take up space on my phone?
Tell me what I should be doing
So that your memories be gone
Should I ignore my head
For rewinding those happy days?
Should I ignore my heart
Where you hold a special place?
All these thoughts they confuse me
I don’t know what to do
How does one heal a broken heart?
How should I let go of you?

The blue skies don’t feel so blue
The daisies have lost their hue
The wise words don’t seem so true
Without you, without you

The green fields don’t feel so green
I’m staring at an empty screen
Everything’s lost in between
Without you, without you

The yellow sun is not the same
If I don’t get to call your name
Life becomes an endless game
Without you, without you

The black hole in my heart
Is consuming all the other parts
Slowly, surely, I am falling apart
Without you, without you

Without you, oh, without you
No colour seems to catch my view
I’m left with nothing good to do
Without you, without you

You promised me that you’d love me
Until the sky would fall
Now that the sky has truly fallen
Your promise means nothing at all

Rich and rich as I may be
I’m troubled by my memory
Yes those memories with thoughts
They tie my heart up in knots
Those thoughts are always full of you
Choke my veins through and through
You and all the things of past
Cut my breath and lungs apart
You’re in my head when I try to sleep
The reason why I wake and weep
For soon as you come to mind again
I’m reminded of this constant pain
All this pain I cannot hold
I’m a broken man with lots of gold
Rich and rich as I may be
I cannot erase my memory

Give me Loneliness for company
Give me strangers for friendship
Give me a heart that I once owned
Diseases to fill it with
Now that I am alone
Now that she has gone

Give me walls that can whisper
Give me a roof, a cracking roof
Give me a floor full of rodents
A hallucination proof
Now that I am alone
Now that she has gone
I can’t stand on my feet
I can’t stand my chattering teeth
I can’t stand on my own
Now that she has gone

Give me darkness for days
Give me anxiety for nights
Give me ignorance for life
Now that she has gone
Now that she has gone

Tomorrow when I wake up
I’m gonna need a shake-up
Cause I’ve had a little break-up
And there’s nothing I wanna take up
O’ Love

Well my soul will need some cleaning
Now that life has lost its meaning
When all I needed was a little love
And a shoulder for some leaning
O’ Love
O’ Love, look what you’ve made me do

Is there a hope that I can borrow
When I’m drowning in my sorrow?
Just a little light and a little smile
Should get me by tomorrow

Now there’s no reverting
To the state where I was flirting
When the pain is reasserting
Only to leave my heart more hurting

This is the end of my dreaming
I’ll sleep after screaming
That the sun has disappeared
And the moon has now stopped gleaming
O’ Love
O’ Love, look what you’ve made of me
O’ Love
O’ Love, is there no hope for me?
O’ Love
O’ Love
Love, love, love, love
Love, love, love, love

I’m in love with an angel —
The girl who sits next to me
All my friends call it crushing
But it does seem love to me
When she steps in the classroom
My eyes are fixed on her
Just her presence makes me
Think I could live forever
All this feels so fine
To fall in love when you’re nine
…
In the classroom I do
Stupid and crazy stunts
Though it may seem foolish
It’s worth her every attention
They all call me crazy
They don’t know how I feel
I feel no thirst, no hunger
Having skipped my meal
Oh it feels so fine
To fall in love when you’re nine
…
At home I’m always dreaming
With her face in my head
Whether I’m watching tv
Or lying straight on my bed
My homework’s always pending
But I could hardly care
Just the mention of her
Brings home the sweetest air
All this feels so fine
I can’t wait to make her mine
…
Today I felt different
On my way to school
Later I found out that she
Had moved and it wasn’t cool
She left me with no message
No contact and no sign
Now there’s nothing that I
Want to make it mine
No, it doesn’t feel fine
To have your heart broken when you’re nine
