My heart is cracked and it's leaking
It's leaking all over this page
And I stutter but I'm not speaking
Stutter in the words I write again

It's as if my mind's been shot
Been shot right onto the screen
And I'm not asking a lot
It just takes one second to read

And my tears are not water
They are ink on the page
This isn't something I've thought of
It's simply how I have changed
My breath is shaking as it's leaving my chest
And the keys are tapping always in sync with it
It's my feelings I'm writing, it won't be like the rest
My own version, it's my very own personal lit

I could cut my wrists to let it out
But I want the pain as the ink spills
And it hurts more to write it down
It's like the most bitter of pills

And I find myself wondering
If you'll maybe read this one day
And I find myself pondering
If I really care anyway

And my tears are not water
They are ink on the page
This isn't something I've thought of
It's simply how I have changed
My breath is shaking as it's leaving my chest
And the keys are tapping always in sync with it
It's my feelings I'm writing, it won't be like the rest
My own version, it's my very own personal lit

Pen to paper it's magnetic
Like blades across the skin
But this self loathing, it's pathetic
I'm starting over from within

You'll never read these words
Because you never even cared
We live in different Worlds
And you seem so care impaired

So I'm taking pen to paper
But, I'm not doing it for you
And I'll get better later
Because now I know the truth
You're a cold and empty soul
And really you're not worth my time
And I know I'll find another girl
But good luck finding a good guy
