I put my heart
into a box with walls oh-so-paper thin
the day was to be our last
the last time that I touched your skin
And the day before that
you had just called me your next of kin
and so I kept fighting for you in battles
for a ring that I could not win
So I hope it burns through your fingers
and fits like a shoe too small
because the ring that you wear
will never answer your heart’s call
