Heart Broken
I need a candle I need a flame
In pain and my body knows I’m to blame
How did this happen how do I explain
This torture so intense I need peace
Look to the flame burning with ease
Pray for a night I don’t have to appease
I wish upon a star I wish upon a star tonight, let me fly with you
Into the wind to fall with my wings out wide
I wish upon a star, together we will be free and far
I wish upon a star tonight, guide me to your palace of light
Forever I fear will you keep me safe
As I wish upon a star tonight
Bleeding from the heart we will part
If only I wasn’t branded with a scar
No magic no pill no breath will mend
The pain forever in my soul now I lay
Helplessly broken in a million pieces
