Pain erupts in my chest We were just kids without knowledge of what love was A cruel thing that, that love can hide itself away for awhile I wish I could tell you that it gets easier, but it doesn't. At least not until you find a person that you
My heart explodes with love lost
Flaming needles doing their level best
to constantly remind me of the cost.
Seeing it manifest in places, songs, and movies
That rock in the park or the field near the school
Never realizing that what were living wasn't love at all
All they were were fleeting moments, ephemeral and shallow
For there's no feeling in a rock, or a field, or a movie
It's within, in here, but we didn't know, couldn't figure it out
But I know now, because it's the pain I feel
Radiating from my heart, sapping my strength and will to go on
Pooling in my stomach so that it's always full, keeping food away
Threatening to boil over with sickness should I eat
Taking shelter from a fight or just to take a break
Only to make itself felt once more as it parts
Parts from a broken heart, a broken soul, a broken man
This pain...erupting in my chest
