They said

They say follow your heart

But if my heart is in a thousand pieces

Tell me I must follow which part

They say let love, let live

But don’t I deserve the same

Why can’t happiness be more of a take than give

They say time heals everything

But wasn’t all these years just time

And it hasn’t changed anything

They say love yourself, the way you are

But then why don’t people ever stay

When I end up showing them all my scars

They say one day you’ll find the one

But what if I don’t want it

Instead I'll take what gave me all those pains and burns

They say someday you’ll find happiness

But what if it’s too late

And I end up losing myself in emptiness.
