The Hearts Beating For So Much More

We surround ourselves with distractions to keep our thoughts from wondering off at night and yet they do. We shut our hearts while they scream and toss inside us And we act as if we cannot hear them We distance ourselves from everything that makes us happiest for no reason Yet we pray we are thought of Missed And alive in one another We show the world we are strong and invulnerable yet the hints that leak of us fail to do so We go to bed thinking of a better day to come Thinking we'd wakeup and hear the words we ache to listen to one more time Yet we know every day is the same And the days are not better than each other We try with all our might to evoke emotion, sentiment yet we fail every night and try again everyday What is it that drives us Pushes us Ails us They are the hearts beating while we silence them For so much more.
