Heart On Fire

My heart is so heavy, so broken and unsteady

That it just can’t compete with all the rest of me

My heart is so tired, exhausted uninspired

Just waiting for the muse, to set it back on fire, set it on fire

My heart is so sore, from trying to do more

Those things I cannot change but cannot ignore

My heart is so confused, just trying to find some truth

A place to put this faith, and put myself to use, to use

Do I make you proud?

Tell me what’s my part

Lay this burden down

Lift up my heavy heart

My heart is so heavy, filled to capacity

But always gathering, pumping and pumping

My hearted is so tired, worn out but wired

Just waiting for a flame to set it back on fire, on fire

My heart is so scared, uncertain unprepared

What if I reach for something, and it isn’t there

My heart tries so hard, to stop picking things apart

Just let myself be loved, and love things as they are, as they are

Do I make you proud?

Tell me what’s my part

Lay this burden down

Lift up my heavy heart
