My soul is a song that sings a raspy tune,
About love, life and the heartache I've been through.
My heart is a book with pages and chapters written out of order about me and you.
I can't seem to remember the beginning of either and the end seems like a distant future.
But I want you to take your time listening, reading and trying to understand,
Because my life is in these words
And even if we're from different worlds
Love, pain, joy and heartache are things we've all come to know.
And by simply listening and reading each other, we can begin to grow.

She sees heaven in his eyes
He sees a hell in her heart
Too many times she's been hurt
and torn all apart
He sees her suffering
She sees that he's trying
But something inside her
Feels like she's dying
She knows it's worth fighting
He knows how much she's struggling
Struggling with pain versus time
Never knowing if she'll make it through
Like she's blind, walking a twisted path
He guides her towards the truth
She falls behind, she's just too tired
He turns around, sees her lying on the ground
Adrenaline kicks in
He has to carry her out of this place
A heavy load to bare, he struggles through
He takes the weight on his shoulders
Pain, sorrow and a lifetime of despair
Knowing she's his one saving grace
He pushes on until he sees the light up ahead
The final stretch, but he feels heaven on his side
Wondering if he'll make it after how much he's bled
And how much he's cried
The bright light awakens her
She holds on tight, crying tears of joy
With a kiss and a laugh they move on together
Cause love is something even hell can't destroy

It's a blessing and a curse,
    this connection that we share
A balance between the love we feel
        and how much we should care

I flipped a coin
My choice was wrong
I've hurt you now
And that was wrong

Cause I could see
Why you might love me
But I'm not as nice as you think

Cause I excel at hurting feelings
And I know that's not a good thing
But its better than playing with your heart

I flipped a coin
I missed my chance
You're sweet and you should know it
I wish I hadn't rejected your advance

I had your heart
And I tore it apart
I ruined a perfect fantasy
Of you and me

I flipped a coin
I treated you wrong
And nothing will make up for it
...not even this song

I shouldn't have flipped a coin
I should have let my heart make the choice
Cause maybe I could love you

But the truth of it all
Is I'll never deserve you...

He sits there with joy
But he's a poor boy.
With a broken heart
And with the art of joy.

She sits there with glee
For she is in love with a boy,
A boy whose heart she broke.

She was a poem that a poet was never able to write
He was knight that was never able to fight
She was the cake that a cake maker was never able to make
He was the goal that a soccer player was never able to score
She was the rhyme
He was the melody
She was the sun
He was the moon

They were star-crossed lover
Always passing each other but never colliding
Maybe the timing was never right
Or maybe they were always meant to be another poem of two star-crossed lovers
