Putrid Heart
The putrid heart,
it shows,
all the retched places it's been,
only i shall fetch it,
shield it from it's known horrors,
replenish love,

when I am kidnapped myself
by evil contemplations,
fountain eyes
that sprout my fears,
puddles my sorrows onto my cold pillow,
symbolic of myself
— How can I hero
when my weakness is shown before me,
and i fall to their feet in despair everytime
weep at it's injustice to my life,
and never get stronger
— How can I hero
when I can't escape my mind,
when I can't sleep at night,
enjoy a great song,
or when i'm always batting tears out of my lonely eyes
showing the world how weak I am.
— How can I hero...
