Dear old feeling
Welcome home
I won't greet you
With open arms
You've been here countlessly
Taking whomever you want
Leaving me stunned
Each time
Completely slumped
But this is now your fifth visit
DEEP into my heart
The familiarity
The most hated part
I know how it feels when a heart breaks
I know how it feels when a soul slips away
I know how it feels to have a constant ache
I know how it feels to live w regret EVERYDAY
Fifteen years now,
we've shared this dance
Never changing your partner
Choosing to keep me close to you
Dragging me along as you prance
I hated you when we first met
I still hate you now
In a twisted way
You've become
one of my longest
companions somehow
I know how it feels when a heart breaks
I know how it feels when a soul slips away
I know how it feels to have a constant ache
I know how it feels to live w regret EVERYDAY
You've taken most of them
Are you finally satisfied?
Or shall I hold my breathe
Bc it's only a matter of time
Until your hunger is revived?
There's still a handful
Of shards
Left of my broken heart
I just sit here on edge
Waiting in fear
They too will depart
I know how it feels when a heart breaks
I know how it feels when a soul slips away
I know how it feels to have a constant ache
I know how it feels to live w regret EVERYDAY
I feel I've paid my dues
I think I've done my time
No one's soul
Should have to take
The pain you've laid on mine
You can leave me be now
You've completed your task
I'll forever have tears
Rolling down my face
I don't bother to hide them
Behind any mask
I know how it feels when a heart breaks
I know how it feels when a soul slips away
I know how it feels to have a constant ache
I know how it feels to live w regret
EVERY FUCKING DAY
