I wish I could find my heart,
Sometimes I miss it,
Not often,
But once in a while,
I want to remember
What it’s like to feel…
I buried it somewhere,
But I don’t remember where-
And I’ve been searching
For quite some time,
But I can’t seem to find,
Where I laid it down,
I keep hearing the sound
Of crying in the woods,
And it’s driving me insane,
To listen to someone in pain…
There are some
Who keep saying they need me,
To come back again,
Even if it’s just a single day-
But I can’t seem to find a way…
My chest is empty,
There is nothing there,
It died that day,
He went away-
And like a good child,
I put your toy away…
Only now I want it back again,
And I can’t seem to see,
Exactly where I put it,
Against a rainy day…
It’s pouring outside,
And I am soaking wet…
Wish there was a way to get
My heart back again,
Maybe then I could
Truly be your friend…
