Routine Heart Check Up
Heartbreak doesn't hurt that much
When it's all you feel.
Your body becomes immune
to the pain that's oh so real.
All you want to do that night,
Is lie awake and cry.
You write about it all you want,
But deep down, you want to die.
All the nice and sweet old lies,
He told you to your face.
But now you know that they're just words,
Made from sweet vanilla lace.
For him the words were just like air,
Coming oh so easy.
Now that you think about it,
It makes you kind of queasy.
When he leaves, a new one comes.
Again you think it's right.
Little do you know,
You'll cry again that night.
The tears will stop
And I swear you'll see,
Don't worry dear soul,
It's happened to me.
Eventually it will not hurt,
The pain you will not feel.
Your heart's been torn so many times,
The peace is so surreal.
Life without a heart is nice.
You don't feel anything at all.
But maybe you'll be lucky.
And with love, you'll have a ball.
Or...
Or you'll take the easy way
And choose to just give in.
I must say that I prefer
To live a way that I can win.
