(1st verse)
It hit me like a cannonball,
You could see it on the other side of the wall.
It hit me like a freight train,
Maybe that’s why I’m going insane.
I don’t know how to stop time from sitting still,
I didn’t realize how much silence really kills.
Chorus:
We took something perfect,
Now we are slowly removing the parts that made it work.
We took something perfect,
Maybe I didn’t notice but maybe you felt the pain first.
I don’t know how to be strong,
Just like you, it will be hard to carry on.
(2nd Verse)
It hit me like a tons of bricks,
I couldn’t see how much I would truly miss.
It hit me like a morning car crash,
I always thought this was built to last.
I don’t know how to stop it from rolling down the hill,
I didn’t realize how much silence really kills.
Chorus:
We took something perfect,
Now we are slowly removing the parts that made it work.
We took something perfect,
Maybe I didn’t notice but maybe you felt the pain first.
I don’t know how to be strong,
Just like you, it will be hard to carry on.
Bridge:
I never thought it could get better than this.
I never thought it would be everything I would miss.
I never thought it would hurt so much,
I never thought I would have to bottle this up.
It feels like I have to be the strong one,
I can’t have you see me come undone.
Chorus:
We took something perfect,
Now we are slowly removing the parts that made it work.
We took something perfect,
Maybe I didn’t notice but maybe you felt the pain first.
I don’t know how to be strong,
Just like you, it will be hard to carry on.

Nice! It seems when we ask for something perfect, yet when we get it, we don’t know how to receive it, without destroying it. Great lyrics, only you know the music needed. I hope to see this turn into a song someday. Great!
