May 25, 2014 -- Return to sender
If you break my heart give it back to me
Not that it's worth anything anymore
Not that it was worth something to begin with
Not that it matters
But there's a hollowness under the indent
That your palm pressed into my spine
And it's beating against my skin
Just liked you did
I'll be whatever you want
I'll be silent, I'll be small, I'll be still
But if your words cut into my wrists again
And tear my veins right open
Collect my blood in a honey ***
And keep it on your shelf
So when the addiction sneaks in
And you need one more hit
I won't take your punches
I won't be here anymore
And if your hands can't contain themselves
If my pain is just that ******* **** to you
When your heart is done with mine
Please just give it back
I'll take it in bits and in pieces
I'll take it with a brave face
I'll take whatever you haven't already taken
Please
Just give it back
