Wooden Heart

I'll come talk to you when my alcohol turns back to blood
When your memory doesn't make my dried eyes flood
When everything between us is exactly as it should
But there's too much water in my vision to focus on the good

Now that my chest is empty from where your heart once stood
I guess I could find a substitution but even if I could
A different heart just wouldn't fit right and probably couldn't do any good
It's useless but I'll sit up all night and carve myself this new heart of wood

You make your excuses and I'll make mine
But all this talk ain't cheap we can't afford the time
I guess at some point you just up and changed your mind
On your priorities, I wasn't worth the climb

And now my chest is empty from where your heart once stood
I guess I could find a substitution but even if I could
A different heart just wouldn't fit right and probably couldn't do any good
It's useless but I'll sit up all night and carve myself this new heart of wood

My heart's no good cuz you took it far away
And it's full of cracks from when it still belonged to me
I don't want it back cuz you used to fill up those holes
And now I lack cuz your heart got stole

And now your chest is empty from where your heart once stood
I guess you could find a substitution but even if you could
A different heart just wouldn't fit right and probably couldn't do any good
It's useless but I'll sit up all night, try to carve myself a new heart of wood
But my heart's no good...
