I’ve got to Carve you out,
Of my heart today.
Even though I love you,
Thoughts of you they just can’t stay.
You only bring toxicity,
When you come around.
So, if I want to save myself,
A carving is going down.
I’m not sure how I’ll do it,
I know that it will hurt.
But nothing could be worse,
Then the words you sling like dirt.
I wonder if I’ll bleed more,
From the wounds you gave to me.
Of lies and hate and bitterness,
Or will my heart finally be free.
No one really knows,
But I just know I have to try.
For If I leave you in my heart,
This pain will make me want to die.
