Fear Love Disappointment Hope Shame Trust Opening your heart It’s like giving way to the devil To come and wreck it I know that everything is not that bad But it’s still hard to understand. You ask me Why I don’t believe? I’m answering you Why should I do it? You want to come in my circle Approaching me with a smile While wanting me to take in your poison Under the guise of familiarity Telling me they’re good intentions Yet I can smell your bad aspirations I know there is good in humanity But my space is too small to accept a society So, to the one who one day Will take its place in my heart Please, by our good god, Be someone who knows how to love Because this fragile husk of mine Is too brittle to take a dive.

Prayer of a bruised heart
Fear Love Disappointment Hope Shame Trust Opening your heart It’s like giving way to the devil To come and wreck it I know that everything is not that bad But it’s still hard to understand. You ask me Why I don’t believe? I’m answering you Why should I do it? You want to come in my circle Approaching me with a smile While wanting me to take in your poison Under the guise of familiarity Telling me they’re good intentions Yet I can smell your bad aspirations I know there is good in humanity But my space is too small to accept a society So, to the one who one day Will take its place in my heart Please, by our good god, Be someone who knows how to love Because this fragile husk of mine Is too brittle to take a dive.
