Heart

Poor defenseless weakened heart
is it true that if you hurt you break?
Do others manipulate the things you do
with the words they say
and the things they do?

If you wrap yourself
in covered stone
Will your feelings
fade away?
Will the hurt and the lies
fade away into a dark abyss?

Heart oh heart
why do you break?
When they've hurt you before
but you don't back away

They're not the only thing you have
they're not the only thing you need
You have yourself oh my heart
You're tainted, hurt, scarred, and broken
You close yourself off, but they knock to come in
