When They Disappear

You were not delusional
You just wanted love
These people say that they won't hurt you
But they will without a thought
I miss her everyday
But I won't check my texts
Cos if I do
I'll see I'm left on read and cry
When they disappear
They leave your heart in shreds
On the floor
She tore it out of my chest
And held it lovingly
Then ripped it all apart
I have to pretend
That my ribcage doesn't ache
I have to pretend
That everything's okay
Ripping it in halves
Ripping it in eights
Ripping it 'til it's nothing but a pile of flakes
It is not your fault
It is not a crime
To want your body
On her mind
When they disappear
They leave your heart in shreds
On the floor
She tore it out of my chest
And held it lovingly
Then ripped it all apart
I have to pretend
That my ribcage doesn't ache
I have to pretend
I have to pretend
