Quotes About Heartache

Falling in love is the best way to kill your heart because then it's not yours anymore. It's laid in a coffin, waiting to be cremated.
~ Ville Valo
Nunca fui covarde Mas agora é tarde Amei tanto Que agora nem sei mais chorar Vivi te buscando Vivi te encontrando Vivi te perdendo Ah, coração, infeliz até quando?
