Hearts to Stone

We are born with a gentle heart
But it doesn't stay for long
When a man is torn
He tears the world apart
Just to prove that he is strong
We keep our sadness
Keep it deep inside
But it leaves a scar
In the end
And souls are shattered
When battered hearts collide
Afraid to break
Again
So we use words like knives
And cold shoulders like daggers
Piercing through
Our flesh and bone
Turning fragile hearts to stone
With every vicious word
Every kick and blow
Another piece of us will die
And these voices follow
No matter where we go
Slowly eating us alive
So much sadness
So much pain we hide
Guarding bitter thoughts
'til the end
And souls are shattered
When battered hearts collide
Afraid to break
Again
So we use words like knives
And cold shoulders like daggers
Piercing through
Our flesh and bone
Turning fragile hearts to stone
And every sadness
Buried deep inside
Maybe time will heal
In the end
And maybe someone
Will break through these lives
And help us feel again
Help us feel again
Help us feel again
