My heart aches like a cavern A cracking chasm That echoes and howls For no one to hear but myself Not a single bat calls it home Only a small trickle of water bleeds out Among the mud and spots explored, mined ores That I gave away too easily
I hold her footsteps so dearly As they're the only thing I have left She tried to return what I gave so freely But I could not accept
I screamed to the moon And mother Mary heard me She came to fill me with a love so holy But I could not accept
I see you now Trying to brave the bridges I've burnt down Your heart full of beautiful riches But every step you take only fractures this fissure I thought I would welcome you in Fill me up and make our love of equal weight But I feel more like a thief than a lover So I cannot accept
