How Heavy Is My Heart

How heavy is my heart?   

So heavy that I cannot stand, I rather lay 
Lay in a puddle of my own tears  
My own fears  
Away from my peers 
My vision unclear  

Chest beating, my heart it pounding  
Trying to, but I cannot understand what my feeling are pronouncing  
Back and forth I go, trying not to let my emotions grow 
but sometimes, many times ...they get the best of me and I get emotional  
Dysfunctional I become searching to overcome this heart ache  
That smothers me viciously while I continue to lay  

....that's how heavy my heart is
