Brittle bones turn into dust
Teardrops fall, turn into rust
Enemies turn into friends
Becoming strangers once again
The guilty, simply misplace trust
And love can't seem to outlast lust
Time and time and time again
From sweet Begins to bitter ends
Expressions mark it all in pain
Tattooed deeply, in my skin
In my mind, without an end
To cover sins and shift the blame
We play our own games of pretend
Letting the damage linger in
Ravaging hearts like wild winds
Of hurricanes brewin', trembling
Promises of make believe
With the truth hidden up your sleeve
Diamonds bury hearts with spades
While dirty deeds are being played
All the while, we dream of love
The thing that wishes are made of
