Heart

Gonna tear this poetry down When no one's left around I'll finally rest beneath the ground And my end will soon begin before my start 'Cause I just can't stand to feel Gonna cauterize the wounds And hope that soon they will heal 'Cause I just need reprieve from this black heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart It's all too much to bear And we're scared of the lives That we never could repair As we tumble down the well of space and time And the ocean swallows us whole And we're told that our souls Are more than bodies that we stole But the void whence we came ends this rhyme Gonna tear this poetry down When no one's left around I'll finally rest beneath the ground And my end will soon begin before my start 'Cause I just can't stand to feel Gonna cauterize the wounds And hope that soon they will heal 'Cause I just need reprieve from this black heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart All our moments come to pass And the ticking of our clocks Is just a vicious paradox As we halve the time it takes to reach the end Infinity's always late As our fears are steeped in tears We create that which we hate As our love becomes the cut that never mends Gonna tear this poetry down When no one's left around I'll finally rest beneath the ground And my end will soon begin before my start 'Cause I just can't stand to feel Gonna cauterize the wounds And hope that soon they will heal 'Cause I just need reprieve from this black heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart Yes I just need to leave behind this heart
