you knew that the heart
in this anxious chest
was made of glass
protected by a rib cage
that was made of twigs & sticks
but you still threw rocks at it
and now you are
the stained & shattered pieces
that was once my beating heart
and i hold on to you
even though you cut right through
even though i'm drowning
in my own blood
the blood of a **** fool
choking on my own tears
suffocated by my worst fears
& all i can taste is regret
and hate
and regret
and pain
and regret
it's all so bitter on my tounge
that is now crowded in my mouth
because i still haven't been able to swallow
the last words you yelled out
before you took your leave
that this wasn't meant to be
that i'm not what you need
i just can't choke them down
because a moment ago
i was your everything
i was the songs you sing
the one to wear your ring
and now you're telling me
that this pain i feel
isn't something that's real
that this heart break
that's making my head ache
was what was ment to be
was our real destiny
but how the **** can that be
somehow i gotta stop this pain
blackout these memories
cause they're all that remains
i gotta pick up the pieces
and get out my glue
put my heart back together
and get the hell over you
