Heart&Soul: Dead on Arrival

Dead on Arrival

undefined undefined

Don’t tell me to open my heart, unless you really mean it.

The depths of my soul are deep and dirty, are you willing to dive in and clean it?

Don’t look at me with false smiles and shitty grins,

To those things I’m akin,

I might even smile back, but they do nothing for me within.

I’m only going to lead you down a one-way street,

Like so many have done to me.

And believe me, I’ll leave you there, all alone,

Before I ever let you leave me.

You can’t lead me.

I can’t follow.

My heart desires waters that are shallow.

Could I ever trust you enough to lead me to sea?

Hold your breath and see…

You’ll be D.O.A –deceased.

You see…

You’ve only scratched the surface,

Go ahead, dig a little deep.

Theres so much more to me.

Than what u meet

When our eyes meet.

When Im dodging your gaze,

Cause Im afraid.

Of letting you, or anyone else in

Within.

Me.

I can easily pretend alot of things,

I can fake a few emotions,

I’m full of metaphors, good at closing doors,

But the love ish, I don’t approach it.

So can you bear with me?

What are your intentions?

I’m not into games,

Back and forth like Tennis.

There are rules to every game you play,

And I learned long ago -- the hard way,

That:

Love, don’t love,

nobody.

At least not my body,

Which embodies

All the bodies

That have vibed me

And defied me

Petrified me

Made me cry, see,

Til my eyes don’t see.

Because love,

Don’t love me.

Because just like me,

Loves been lied to, cheated on, taken advantage of, taken for granted,

Abused, misused, confused, given the blues.

And I’ve been stuck in a place for so long,

With a heart so cold and dark, like a cellar,

The last time tears existed I can’t even remember.

Skin so tough, it feels like leather,

Stormy weather,

Shower me with hail,

And all hail,

He who can cause me to finally prevail.

I’m sick and I want to get well.

But for now, in my prison I’ll dwell.
