I know what it's like to hurt.

I've been diagnosed by hundreds before.

It burned so right to throw myself in the dirt.

And here I am with it, a broken heart once more.

I break it all on my own.

I torment it on bumpy lands.

It's permanently fixed with a scarred tone.

I love when it ends up in the wrong hands.

The lack of discretion, attention at least,

Keeps its beat uneven.

While the growing pain eats my soul; such a feast.

You can hang on to it for me,

I'm leavin'.

I don't know how to care for someone else's heart

I usually leave it unattended.

Till I'm confronted on why it's cold and tart,

While I lie there with guilt.

I'm shield-less and undefended.

My tactic was to push you away.

To pretend to have something I do not.

Trust is important but pain is the way,

You know the game.

Now I've been caught.
