Half the Heart
My heart if you were true
You'd have half the heart to see me through
A love unseen by the naked eye
Felt by a Lovers truth and dare
You wouldn't love me black and Blue
Punishing me for what I felt in you
Thoughts in which were not created by self
Like a Dog wishing you'd throw me a bone
Why shall I bare a screaming heart
When you chose me and I not you
Knowing of your own plans
You should have left me alone if you had half the heart
Instead of taking part of my despair
After getting what you wanted
Embodied now as America's most wanted
For committing a crime of intent
To eat my head tainting my heart
In which you had intent to break
Now both having half a heart
For the next worse to declare
If you had half a heart
You'd be able to see me for me
Rather then punishing me and not letting me go
Only after three belly's and many moons cold
Left with children I bare alone
