Cracks In My Candy Heart

Lipstick on your coffee cup

You left in such a hurry

Said “it’s better if we stop”

Now your ghost is in my hoodie (yeah)

You turned our secrets into stories

Told them like a joke to friends

I read the punchline in your messages

That’s the night the fairytale ends

You put cracks in my candy heart

Turned the red to a deeper dark

Every word was a tiny knife

Death of a promised life

You walked out and you closed that door

Left me bleeding on the kitchen floor

Now I’m dancing with the ache you made

Lonely in the mess we played

All our photos in a pile

Pixel faces staring

I hit delete

But for a while

I swear I feel you tearing

You said you’d hold me through the nightmares

You said you’d never disappear

Now every “always” that you whispered

Is the echo that I fear

You put cracks in my candy heart

Turned the red to a deeper dark

Every word was a tiny knife

Death of a promised life

You walked out and you closed that door

Left me bleeding on the kitchen floor

Now I’m dancing with the ache you made

Lonely in the mess we played

Was it ever love

Or just a dare

You pulled the wings

Off what we shared

I’m still here

But I’m not the same

You killed the “us”

And signed my name (oh)

You put cracks in my candy heart

Turned the red to a deeper dark

Every word was a tiny knife

Death of a promised life

You walked out and you closed that door

Left me breathing but wanting more

Now I’m laughing through the hurt you gave

Lonely

But I crawled away
