Broken
I hate what our relationship has become
It feels like we are walking on an empty egg shell
The chances of it getting broken are too high
We walk around pretending that everything’s ok
We put up a brave front to the world
They compliment on what a beautiful couple we make
We smile look at each other
But what they can’t know is that it’s a face we put up
Our eyes tell a different story
They show the broken trust that existing us
The pain that we feel but we refuse to face up
What our relationship has become cold, untrustworthy
I wish I had the courage to let it go
So that we cannot hurt like we do
