The Taste of Heartbreak

The taste of heartbreak on my tongue
Is like cherry cough syrup
The acid climbing up the walls of my throat
Burns
Just like your lack of words.

Here I am and I gave you my all
And for what reason
When you can’t be bothered to talk

Well I have fallen
Now I’m crashin’ and burnin’
Over you
No more “I love you”s
No more begging for you to see
When I’ve got the taste of heartbreak on my teeth

Oh the foolishness
How I wanted to be…
Oh the silliness
How I pretend not to see
Your lack of affection towards me

Here I stand and I gave you my all
For what reason
When you can’t be bothered to call?

Well I have fallen
Now I’m crashin’ and burnin’
Over you
No more “I love you”s
No more begging for you to see
When I’ve got the taste of heartbreak on my teeth

Can’t turn around, we can’t go back
I want to hide my face, cover my eyes
Because when I see you I know my chest will ache

Here I kneel at your feet and I gave you my all
For what reason
When you could care less where I fall?

Well I have fallen
Now I’m crashin’ and burnin’
Over you
Over you
Over you
No more “I love you”s
No more begging for you to see
When I’ve got the taste of heartbreak on my teeth
No more loving you
No more asking for you to love me
When I’ve got the

Taste of heartbreak on my tongue
Is like cherry cough syrup
