And you rest your head
To ease the pain
Because the weight of your love
Grew too heavy for your body
And left bruises, dents all over your chest
From your own hard beating heart

You close your eyes
And hum a soft tune
Of a lover miles from your reach
But while your lips sing
Your head starts wailing
Because songs only bring life to distance

And you chance upon
A face too familiar
A different song you once danced to
You feel the lush ache
Of a closed wound
And the loneliness comes in slow rhythm

You rest your head
And you hear drumming in the horizon
You are unsure of what's coming
But you try to find reason
That the written will be good
And that your sorrow will finally finish
