Kerrie Maurer - Missing Pieces

Everytime I open up
Everytime I trust
I get hurt
My heart went from whole
To half
To pieces
Each person I learned to trust leaves
And with them goes a part of me
I have nearly no heart
I can't trust I can't be open
I opened my heart one last time
In hopes to not get hurt
I kept to myself
Trying not to attach
So I don't lose what's left of my heart
My fear is to get hurt
To trust an be turned away
To open up an be shut out
Nightmare came reality
I opened to much
I attached so close
I trusted with my life
The emptiness was filled
Now I'm pushed away
You said you would be here
Your not like the rest
You'll always be here
I feel dead
Every part shattered
I gave you all I had
And once again got hurt
I learn to love
I learned to care
I even learned to try
Not to give up
I can't open again
This was the end
The final straw
What was my heart is gone
Nothing but a black hole now
Just a bunch of missing pieces
