Heartless

Kanye West Heartless Lyrics (Excerpts)

Songwriters: West, Kanye Omari

"How could you be so, Cold as the winter wind when it breeze yo

How could you be so Dr. Evil You're bringing out a side of me that I don't know I decided we weren't gonna speak so why we up 3 a.m. on the phone

Why does she be so mad at me for, homie I don't know she's hot and cold

I won't stop, won't mess my groove up cause I already know how this thing goes,

You run and tell your friends that you're leavin' me

They say that they don't see what you see in me

You wait a couple months then you gon' see,

You'll never find nobody better than me How could you be so heartless?"

• Heartbreaks suck! Break ups can suck! Have you ever been with someone who has been so mean that it just breaks your heart because you gave them 150%? Have you ever been with someone who has treated you so ugly that you became this ugly and negative person you did not even know existed in you? Have you ever loved someone who is nice one minute and cruel the next? How can people be so careless, so heartless?

i wonder what makes you lie/

u pull away and push me away/

less heart and more grief/

pain so low as the rivers run deep/

a thin line between love and hate/

my love won't wait...

or at least it shouldn't/

yet, here i am/

drowning in tears/

stuck in quicksand/

you keep others around/

as I sink deeper and deeper/

to the background/

you say I'm enough/

but then you say you're stuck/

not quite sure what that means/

still my love for you bursts through its seams/

doin' my best/

to maintain my respect/

your respect/

so confused/

murky like dirty water/

yet, it seems so clear/

you yearn for me to be near/

so far, so close/

I know you need, want and love me the most/

more heart and less grief/

you will soon give to me/

already the chosen one/

you just need more time/

i sit contemplating/

tryin' not to justify/

can't change the past/

to change now/

no, i won't ask/

loving you is like the moment the sun arises/

illuminating hues of reds, oranges and yellows/

passion and fire/

makes no sense at all/

and at the same time it does/

you can't have two/

so choose one/

before I become heartless
