For many years I've worn1
My heart upon my sleeve2
But when everyone is blind3
The sight just goes unseen.4
I'm tired and hopeless,5
A broken man.6
Please, open up your heart.7
Let me know,8
I thirst for truth,9
For absolution,10
To know if it11
is worth going on.12
I put my eggs in many baskets13
but each had a hole.14
I've got nothing else left.15
Do I dare uncover yours16
or would it best be left untouched?17
Either way I'm finished18
a shattered husk of nothing.19
Eggs hatched have left as chickens,20
Hearts entrusted come back cracked21
The lust grows deeper22
Salt water given to satiate a thirst.23
Just dricing me mad24
and drying me out.
