Split spark

What's one little spark In a mountain of dirt What's a sky full of stars if no wish is heard When you can't hide from the scars No matter the pretty words And the memories depart But the feelings stay burnt They say that time heals the heart But loss means more than hurt Cause no matter how bright the start The dark is always worse Another trial to lose Just to say that I care Another mile in these shoes I never wanted to wear But if I had to choose It's not a journey I'd share Cause if my thoughts were let loose I'd turn them all to despair The smiles through the blues As I face this burden I bear Are the only trace of glue That slows down the tears So I hold back the truth And keep my grip with a prayer Cause if I split in two What's inside would be bare
