And the beats .. They drop
And the breaths .. They cease  
And the eyes .. They tear
And the heart .. It bleeds  

For all of what was so very close
But in reality was never to be in reach

The warmth of hugs you never felt
The kisses goodnight you'd never get
The father you've lost is now afar
The mother you seek in shooting stars
The love you carry in your heart so true
The love they crush and throw back at you

The things you want are merely wishes  
Child, save your heart a few less stitches  

Stitches you sewed of scars so deep
Stitches you covered from pain too steep  

Oh darling .. Look at you!

Scratches of life cover your body ..
Your broken ribs suffocate your lungs
Your back bones pull out your soul

They say she's dead anyways.

But she says that ..  

Her scars are beauty marks covering her ..
Her cries are calls of salvation awakening the worlds ..
Her screams are the echoes gushing from caves to mountains ..  
Her bleeding heart is flowing love that fills the seas  ..  

And the things so close but she cannot reach ..
Are perhaps the things she does not need ..
