The strings of my heart have snapped, said Job Have I had sorrow like that? That return trip I take to anguish All my energy is sapped It feels like too much sorrow No hope of coming up clover Like the tongue to the sore tooth Replays it over and over My broken heart cannot stay away From what has hurt me the most It takes up hours of my time While I’m hosting my own roast Lamenting, regretting, I'm busy Ruminate, perseverate, too I disconnect from reality Not seeing how I’ll make it through Composing clever conversations For a moment I see light When my heart opens wide to recover Making all things turn out right But, no, it’s not meant to end well there I must suffer for all my crimes And relive how my heart got broken Once again till the end of time.

The Strings of my Heart Have Snapped
The strings of my heart have snapped, said Job Have I had sorrow like that? That return trip I take to anguish All my energy is sapped It feels like too much sorrow No hope of coming up clover Like the tongue to the sore tooth Replays it over and over My broken heart cannot stay away From what has hurt me the most It takes up hours of my time While I’m hosting my own roast Lamenting, regretting, I'm busy Ruminate, perseverate, too I disconnect from reality Not seeing how I’ll make it through Composing clever conversations For a moment I see light When my heart opens wide to recover Making all things turn out right But, no, it’s not meant to end well there I must suffer for all my crimes And relive how my heart got broken Once again till the end of time.
