Half a Heart

It's been said of her, she's heartless in nature There's nothing that beats inside her chest But something like that works two fold Where most don't take the time to know What could be the reason for this With so many hurts it's hard to recover The way love bites it's pain she finds She's given away so much of it That there is hardly any left It's not like her heart she's trying to hide She doesn't come with a load of questions Just where's true love and why's it take so long Hidden out amongst the weeds Often makes love hard to see Where you can go and pick your own No, it's not like she has no heart at all She's just afraid to give the rest away As life imitates art through the bitter parts She'll draw it out with only half a heart Living come what may from day to day
