IF THE HEART IS MADE OF PLASTIC





If the heart is made of plastic
It would easily be broken
Feelings will be fragile
Wearing an artificial smile

Take a moment, think about it
Plastics do get melted away
When someone is badly hurt
It would be difficult to mend the pain

FADED PICTURES



Tell me how
Are we supposed to live
You and I fulfilling our dreams
I have been searching for a friend

But the ship sails very far
I wonder where they are
The beauty of a picture in a frame
Is the cherished memory it brings

Thoughts which pierce the heart
Leaving an everlasting smile
To know how far to get true happiness
Is to measure the rate life is falling

The world is heartless
If not, how come we barely
Spend time with the people we love
Like knocking the door with no one home

Maybe I am been naive
The only one looking at the picture
I could never ask but this little much
Wish I have someone to take me home

WHERE DO BROKEN HEARTS GO?




Where do broken hearts go?
Away from the cruelty of life
A world free of pains and regrets
With not a resentful cloud

Where do broken hearts go?
Shed away tears of sadness in the eyes
Reflected unforgettable past
Of emotion stabbed through the heart

I have tried to draw a line
To find the spot where life is right
The way I see it, love no longer reside
But a glimpse beyond the city of a dying star

Its terrifying been alone in the dark
No one understands what I have been through
The heart is wedged with no more conviction
She can't find a soul to confide
