lyrics

Your heart was loved, but it was broken/You looked at me through distant eyes/The world around you was so frozen/Who would come and break the ice?//The war, it left them thinking twice/But maybe they just weren't that nice//Your heart was loud, but no one listened/Your mirror never told you lies/Like they did when they were kidding/But would they stay and dry those eyes?//You always left them thinking twice/But maybe they just weren't that nice/To break away, it took some time/But now you're gone, you've learned to fly//If you know now what it takes/Set a fire then take a break/And watch the world melt away/To kill the past, to burn mistakes/Set a fire then take a break/And watch the world melt away//Your heart was loved, but it was broken/You looked at me through distant eyes/The world around you was so frozen/Who would come and break the ice?
