I saw you from afar
Picking up the pieces of your broken heart
And while you were reassembling scattered shards
I could see how bad you were torn apart

I honestly didn't want to interfere
And I couldn't watch you fight through your tears
Shed in seconds for misplaced years
Unaided and forced to witness heartbreaking fears

I swore to myself I was content with being alone
So I walked away but once I got home
I took a seat on my lonely throne
And picked up the broken pieces of my own
