Echoes of My Heart

All the things that tear me apart
And drove me completely insane
They are the echoes of my heart

Life stabbed me with a poisonous dart
And that caused me to gain
All the things that tear me apart

The pain and the loneliness in my art
The misery that causes tears to drop like rain
They are the echoes of my heart

My life is a show, happiness plays no part
If only I knew the way to drain
All the things that tear me apart

The nightmares that my insecurities start
The words “Someone please help me once again”
They are the echoes of my heart

The fact that life isn’t sweet as a tart
The emotions that petrifies my brain
All the things that tear me apart
They are the echoes of my heart
