My heart is trying to recover
Waiting quietly for change
Breathe into me your medicine
Sorry if that sounds strange
But I need some help in healing
Nothing I've tried has worked so far
I don't know how much longer I can take
Things being the way they are
I dont know what will fix me
Or if that's even possible at all
But it feels like each bone of mine is broken
Injuries sustained when you made me fall
So I'm searching for a remedy
A cure for this lovesick soul
Because this dangerous disease
Is seriously taking its toll
Degrading brain cells one by one
Memories turning matter to a mushy mess
Stomach contorting into pretzel-like shapes
Skin crawling without your caress
I am damaged and don't know how to repair
The spots you chose to burn and bend
You've left me heartbroken and as a result ill
But with only one touch my body would mend
