Hollow

If you could cut me open, look deep inside you'd see A heart that's long forgotten, what true love should be You'd find my heart all crumpled, beaten black and blue If it could tell a story, here's what it would say to you You took me in my glory, you took me in my prime I really thought we'd make it, stand the test of time But now you've left me brokenjust a hollow shell I feel as if you've chewed me up and spat me straight to hell, If you could see inside my brain, it's muddled and confused, It feels all kind of mushy, all battered up and bruised, But I know that they wil heal up But that it may take some time, But at least I know that, however badly messed up, they both are truly mine.
