here’s a hole in my heart the size of your love

Try to keep it below but it’s rising above And it’s spreading and snaking its way through enough That I’m sitting here saying this stuff is too much And I’m wishing and praying that you’d disappear Wanna be left alone, but I look, you’re still here And the unknown you know, is my life’s biggest fear You have moved on along but I’m still facing years I am sorry for all of the time I was stuck For the moments I used you, that you were my crutch That the hardest I gave was not given enough That my most was your least, and was treated as such And the hope that I clutch just keeps slipping away And I fight and I fight it, to keep it at bay But my solid foundation is starting to sway Order turned into chaos, from sane to dismay Though I try to deny the display on my face There’s no masking reaction to flavor I taste What we had quickly over, disposed of with haste Left me hating the ways that my faith was a waste In this place I’ve been taken, I’m all on my own Lost in so large a world with no place to call home You can reach, but at this point, I’ll just be alone For protection I’m letting this heart turn to stone
