My heart is shattered into one thousand pieces
Each uniquely cut
Jagged and pulsing and oozing red
Oh my lord, I wish I were dead
I look to the sky,
But there is no sun.
Nothing to warm me in this abyss
To blame another is beyond belief
‘Tis myself to blame alone
Falling to the next vice
Until I destroy what is my home
Ashes to ashes
Finish another drink
Sometimes it feels better to wallow
Than to think
Ashes to ashes
Until my lungs collapse
Glasses to glasses
Until my liver fails
Lover to lover
Until my heart stops beating
Lover to lover
I’ve never felt so frail.
