At Any Cost

The only need I've ever had

was to mean something to somebody

At any rate

At any cost

I know true love and affection cant be bought yet

the wrenching pain in my chest tells me

Otherwise

Because it thumps and throbs for you

Yes, it longs

For You

And I pay

For You

Every time I look

For You

and you're not

There

And so,

The wages my heart pays are finite

To You because

It only breaks

Just a little
