I miss you so much.

[Insert profanities]

My heart beats for you.

[Insert flowery words]

What am I to be if not with you?

[Insert threat]

And now the end looks bleak.

You can not be handed your freedom
In the form of a plastic card with your face
Your name printed alongside your age
Hair color, weight, and current living place

You won't discover complete power
On four wheels moving quickly across a road
A shiny new paint job, some nice rims
Maybe even a truck that can carry a load

You shouldn't expect the perfect job
Around people who always make your day
Quiet office, exciting work, benefits
Some vacation, and very generous pay

You better be looking forward to life
Totally real, with heartbreak, sucky jobs, bills
Don't be too surprised when it hits you
Just make sure you've sharpened your skills.

Her heart was a burning fire
Fed each day by love and fear
Blackened by her intensity
Searing any who came near

Flames shot out with fury
She burned your name away
Into the coals of her fiery heart
Where your memory will stay

The heat grew stronger daily
Bending steel keeping it from harm
Discoloring, breaking, ruining
Setting off her internal alarm

She burned out some time ago
The beating extinguished by power
But she's still smoldering somewhere
With far less for her to devour.

Go ahead and cry for a spell
Curse the world and its people
Fade into your own darkness
Swan dive off life's steeple

Nurse your broken heart
Let your breathing get choppy
Your helpless face in the mirror
See the pain in an exact copy

Curl up in a ball on your bed
Bury yourself deep within the sheets
Ignore the myth called time
Count out your slow, breaking beats

Do all of that for a day or two
Drain your body of all its sorrow
But then choose to smile again
Have faith in a brighter tomorrow.

I'm the boat that capsized
You're the mountain that withstood
I'm the chair with the broken leg
You're the strong forest wood

I'm the bird who can't fly
You're the sun as it shines
I'm the crumbling cobblestone
You're the color between the lines

I'm a rainy England day
You're a powerful force
I'm the shattered wine glass
You're the rescuing course

I'm a dying candle
You're a racing car
I'm the fading memory
And you're a falling star.

If I gave you my heart
Would you keep under lock and key?
Would you cradle it in your arms
And remember that it came from me?

If I gave you my heart
Would you protect it all your days?
Would you keep it next to yours
And promise that's where it stays ?

If I gave you my heart
Would you fix it when it breaks?
Would you glue it back together
And remind me of the love it makes?

Lipstick marked inquiries
Black-splattered understanding
Frozen moments inferior
Broken hearts too demanding  

Unreasonable promises
Faltering beats bargained away
Whispering endearments
Hazy words no one would say

Darkened hallways formed
Cautious assumptions are made
Fearful breaths of icy blue air
And into the misty night you fade.
