I've been broken so many times, I've lost count of the scars Emotions buried deep, like broken glass in the dark Once, I felt everything, now I'm numb to the core The pain is a distant echo, it doesn't hurt anymore I wish I had a heart of silver, cold but shining Maybe then I'd be loved, maybe then I'd be right But this flesh and blood, it's a fucking curse Every beat a reminder that it only gets worse There's no room for conversation I've tried to run from this feeling But the memory of the damned prophecy pulls me back in If my heart was silver, you'd love me more I'd be worth the fight, like a treasure to adore No more pain, no more lies, just an empty glow A silver heart that's yours, but will never be mine I used to dream of love, but those dreams have turned to dust Promises whispered sweetly, now betrayed by rust Every tear has dried, every smile is a mask Surviving in this world is my only task I had to learn to be strong Being broken over and over again It's part of the training If I could trade this heart for one made of steel Would you even notice? Would you even feel Cold and unbreakable, untouched by the flame Maybe then you'd love me, maybe then you'd say my name If my heart was silver, you'd love me more I'd be worth the fight, like a treasure to adore No more pain, no more lies, just a hollow shine A heart of silver that's yours, but will never be mine But silver tarnishes, and steel can bend No matter what I'm made of, it'll all break in the end So I'll just go numb, with this heart of flesh and bone 'Cause love is a lie, and I'm better off alone If my heart was silver, you'd love me more I'd be worth the fight, like a treasure to adore No more pain, no more lies, just a hollow shine A heart of silver that's yours, but will never be mine
