WATER HEART

There's nothing else I miss more

than following my heart

Forgive me for everything I never meant to become

Moments that leave my memory

The walls I burn down never collapse

A secret passage I build

for no one to find out

All the money and lies

I grew up with

like a fuel I tried to wash out

but the smell remained still

no matter how hard you try to make it go

Confusion and judgement

painting my water heart

Not a damsel in distress

calling for help

Not more than a pair of empty eyes

that believed too much

What have I prepared for the afterlife

A question will forever be haunting me

Temptations and sins

are sung like verses of curse with beautiful music

It's scary how lies fall so easily from our lips

like rain you never expected

and ended drowning you up

Cause we always pretend that everything is more beautiful than its worth


-a.n.l.
