SONG: Hearts Lost, Society Rules

By: Bailey Thompson AND Sabrina Kauldhar

I love you, he always told her

As he held her in his strong embrace

They were, perfect together

He knew it when she stared in his face

She loved him more than she had any other

Their hearts were intertwined like intricate lace

It seemed that they lived in a dream

As they moved along at their own pace

 

Maybe it was odd how distant they were,

In the face of the public eye,

Why? Maybe fear of being misunderstood,

The fear of being criticized,

They didn’t want their love to die,

No they didn’t want their love to die

Oh she’s too young, why would he choose her?

Oh he’s so great, but who is she?

Nothing gets spared by society

They have a way of breaking barriers

Like a tsunami wave

 

Chorus:

 

He came to her as the man of a dream,

And carried her higher and farther,

Like a bug drawn to the kerosene

So brutally beautiful made only to harm her,

He was a miracle she couldn’t have forseen

Too good to be true,

Too good to last forever

 

Every night she would wait by the phone,

But more and more often, her hopes would be crushed,

He was still with her, but she felt so alone,

He was the broom and she was the dust,

To be brushed away from his warmth and light,

He was her refuge from the troubles of life,

Now falling she was,

Yeah falling she was,

And falling she was,

And falling she was,

 

Chorus

 

Never before did she have such a scar

The love she had with him was gone

Lost was his love and her shining star

Just like the ending of a love song

 

Chorus

 

His love to her was so true,

His promise, never clear,

He came to her again, after thinking it through,

And held her, telling her not to fear,

So baby, wipe away your tears,

We’ll be okay; don’t listen to them ever,

They don’t know love, but after all these years,

We do, so let’s be together

What can I say? I like to write!
