Curse

i'm sorry for breaking
a few hearts along the way
but have i really broken anything
or am i just imagining it

i'm sorry i didn't mean to
but should i really say sorry
does sincerity back up on
everything you say and do?

but even if it prevails
i would have to apologize
because i cannot return it
the way that you want it to

a prayer be with you
to mend thy broken heart
if ever it got broken
by a cordial decline

curse me. haunt me.
defile me. hate me.
but can i ever dictate the beat of my heart
can i ever pretend to succumb to one's desires

this curse has taken its toll
every time a heart dies
this curse is getting closer
saying thou shall never love again...
saying thou shall never commit thy heart to anyone again...
and thou will always be unrequited...
