They said you'll always live in my heart.
But I can't feel you, I can't hear you.
You are just gone.
You can't live in a heart that doesn't exist.
It's just space, just air.
Air that I grasp for at night
But never get enough
There's probably a lot of water too
Cause I don't know how
How I'm not dried up from the tears.
You are not in my heart.
You left and took it with you.
You left water that drowns me.
Air that I can never reach
No matter how I try.
And on some days,
you take the water and air
and leave me with nothing.
Just an emptiness that might never be filled.
Then comes that choking fear that I'm breaking.
I can even hear it, it sounds like broken bones
But it's okay, keep my heart love.
I need to know a part of me is with you.
A part of me is there to keep you safe,
To give you tight hugs.
To tell you how much I love you.
Some day I hope to grow another heart.
Maybe the new heart will hear you.
Maybe it will feel you.
It will fill up that space.
