Tortured Soul

Tortured Soul

Tortured soul

the heart you stole

broken down & devastated

after everything we've been

gotta set you free, again

it hurts too much now

to just be your friend

my head tells me to go

but my heart tells me to stay

Physically weak from this heartache

I'm emotionally & spiritually broken

with so much love to give

I need the strength of a mustered seed

just to hold on to my sanity

the sorrow I hold is too heavy a load

Like a moth to a flame, I see the fire

I have the desire

to want to help put out the flames

but every time I do I get burned

by the bugs attracted to my light

I'm tired of this fight

Is this all just a game?

am I asking for too much

I'm tired of standing alone

outside in the cold

please, won't somebody let me in

so I can warm my tortured soul
