Untitled

I loved a woman that didn't love me

and she knew what I felt for her

I loved a woman that couldn't see

that there existed nothing truer

 

I would walk the streets

clutching my heart, sobbing to the night sky

my headphones on, jamming to beats

replacing my want to die

 

She is a wounded dove

with a pierced heart

and she swears she can't feel love

I think she's just way too smart

 

Or maybe, not enough emotional

not enough feeling and free

but my feelings are uncontrollable

and I can't live without thee

 

Or so I thought, but then I walked

moving one foot in front of the other

I called her, and we talked

and then I knew there wouldn't be another

 

but she started to cry

and it broke my heart

when I realized why

and that we will never start

 

I hung up the phone

went cold that day

becoming a mindless drone

not knowing what to feel or say
