Coping Problems
Once I had a heart,
A heart as big as the world!
Well maybe not that large…
But it fit inside of a girl.
But over time I find it broken,
Shattered beyond repair.
I should have never let it open
Just because “love” was in the air.
Now please don’t feel sorry.
Cause I did this to myself.
I saw what was happening
And I didn’t cry help.
I just kept it all inside me,
And felt the pressure grow.
Now my heart lies in pieces
As fine and vast as snow.
Now I know that time is all you need
That’s’ what they all say
But a wound can’t heal at all
I you keep letting it bleed…
Now I’ve forgotten the shape of my heart
And even though I’ve got all the parts,
There’s no way I could put it together again.
Because the place inside just didn’t keep its shape
And now I find I’ve been left in the wake
If a girl who gave her all, but is left with no escape.
Now I know I should have been gone at the first sign of danger.
And the second should have been buried in my past.
By the third I froze, denying
Swore the forth one wouldn’t last.
Now I can’t deny, even if I try
That I gave up too fast.
I think I’ve found a way to find a new start
I know it won’t be perfect, It’ll leave a scar
If I close my eyes and let it be
Now I don’t see a broken heart.
I can pretend I’ve gone on vacation
Toes deep in the sand that shines like stars
The ocean crashes loudly
As each wave crashes to the floor
I’ll hold my own hand
And keep my self warm
When the wind will blows like a summer’s breeze
I’ll smile without a care
I hope you sprain your arm
When you swing to shatter what is now thin air
