Analysis of Downhearted



I take a deep breath and count to three,
The pain finally hits, from her leaving me,
Because my feelings were too kind,
So her false love made my heart blind,
Without love, my heart's beating but dead,
And her fake love is all that's in my head,
Crazy how, she doesn't want me anymore,
When my loves, way stronger than before,
But it doesn't matter, because I did try,
She was the one, to still say goodbye.
