I Had a Dream You Stole My Heart

The December chill creeps around my bones My joints feel like crushed up stones I walk through the bittier cold night I really should not call you, but I just might My mind knows your poison, but my heart does not care Life is full of pain, and you have given me my fair share The walk is to get you out of my troubled head But you creep like the cold even when I’m alone in bed Sick and delusional that you’re my cure My mind won’t accept you don’t love me anymore So alone I walk, I walk until I fall The pain is so crippling and I will soon crawl An inch away from death is a million miles from home Now I only have this dessert sand I roam. I know I loved you to much But your hold on my heart is such a strong clutch Squeeze if you will until the blood won’t go through Do not stop until my heart stops I am so tired of loving you
