Heartache
The winter eats into me
It snows in my heart
I always bear my heart
Naked outside of me
Like a tingling bell
But my heart is not
Of iron and steel
Thus I easily break it
Thorns, nails, and pales
Sticks in the blood (covering my heart)
Will I be taken from
The shadow of far night?
I'm hearing the sound of
Death breathing in my ears
A silence like
Under the wings
Of a dead bird
A silence like
The quietude
Of open graves
I'm hearing the songs of
The birds no more
Nor the wind, nor the whistling of
My own blood, in my ears
It snows in my heart
I always bear my heart
Naked outside of me
Like a tingling bell
But my heart is not
Of iron and steel
Thus I easily break it
Thorns, nails, and pales
Sticks in the blood (covering my heart)
Will I be taken from
The shadow of far night?
I'm hearing the sound of
Death breathing in my ears
A silence like
Under the wings
Of a dead bird
A silence like
The quietude
Of open graves
I'm hearing the songs of
The birds no more
Nor the wind, nor the whistling of
My own blood, in my ears
