No Time For A Broken Heart
Crawling
I’ve been living on the floor
Clawing
Looking for something more
Thought I saw it, in your eyes
That thing id been hoping to find
I’d been broken before but I thought I’d give you a try
Bitter
Should’ve known where it would go
Quitter
You were here and now you’re no more
Boiling tears gush down my face
My screams, they fill the night
What happened to not giving up without a fight?
Landed back on my knees
Oh how could this be
Why can’t nothing go right?
That familiar feeling
It leaves me reeling
Still got the wounds from your bite
You did not stick around
And I don’t like the ground
So a change of scenery is due
Go ahead, come tell me
Damn me to hell
Convince me that I need you
