Changed

I told you I didn't want a war....
But you carried me back for more...
You made me feel small in your arms....
Showing safety within the harm

I never could color you a single shade...
You colored me well, you'll never fade...
It's hard to remember, life before you.....
Hard to forget, the picture you drew....

Hard not to be so weak and trembling...
With all I've built, disassembling...
Somewhere back there, from here to now...
I know that I've forgotten how....

How to hate...a beating heart....
Even one, that tore my world apart...
Because the feeling's no longer there....
Only sadness and despair....

For I know, your cruelty to me...
It couldn't set your demons free....
And I no longer wish you pain...
Because you and I, we're not the same...
