Never A Broken Heart

by Ixora   Oct 19, 2009


I've been trampled to death by roses
At the bottom of the sea
I've fallen from the Eiffel Tower
Without benefit of wings
And I lost every race
Everyone said I would win
But I never had my heart broken
Because I never let anyone in

I lost all my limbs in 'Nam
Took morphine for the phantom pain
I saw God in a sea of red
And then I went insane
I lost one eye in the circus
Learning to juggle some guns
But I never had my heart broken
Because I never loved anyone

I made a deal with the devil
I never have regretted
Then ran off to the nearest window
When he told me where the road was headed
Now you can stare in wonder and ask
How I keep smiling through the pain
Or you can look back and bother yourself
If you wouldn't have done the same.

I had a birthday party every Sunday
And blew bubbles on the moon
I lived a hundred lifetimes
And the end still isn't coming soon
I had money given, gotten
And all my meals were free
But I never had my heart broken
Because no one ever loved me
