Broken blue boy
My heart aches for you
And yours for her
But I don’t know how to stop loving you

She broke your heart
So tell me why my chest is aching
I’d take all the pain you feel
At no cost at all
If only you’d look me just once with admiration in your eyes

I’ll mend your heart
Stitch it together with a needle and thread
I’ll sew my hand to your chest
Feel your heartbeat beneath my palm
Reminding us both that you’re alive and healthy
Even if your mind is struggling to go on without her
Your heart still beats in tune with mine

Broken blue boy
Someday you’ll wake up and laugh again
The sun will feel warm on your skin
And you’ll realize that your chest is no longer hollow
Someday you’ll wake up
And your heart will no longer beat for her
But for yourself
