Every Song

Inspired by "Every Song" as made famous by On An On.

You could say that I am still terrified

So long it's been since letting myself breathe

I smudged the line between each truth and lie

While inside pieces of my heart still grieve

From day to day my blade the river crossed

I'd wait to find the strength to float down stream

Though o'er my heart yet sings the song of loss

Behind this mask I'm weaker than I seem

I know now love from you won't heal my soul

No, you were never destined to save the world

Love for myself again will make me whole

No room in heaven left for broken girls

I'm scared of facing life without you here

So please don't let your love run out my dear

I'm definitely no Shakespeare.
