The Key To My Shattered Heart

"I fall unto submissive knees.

At your feet I beg.


For you to take what has been yours.

I am trapped here in seg.


Beneath my wounded breast,

is the aching pump that breaks my chest.


I am but a battered, broken, bloody, heart,

desperate not to fall apart.


And although it's not much to behold,

if I can be so bold,


I present to you all I have left still in my control. 

When I tried to sell my soul, 


the Devil took a look


and pushed it back and snarled 'Inside of you I see,

something even too dark for me'


I have nothing left but to obey. And so to you I pray. 

To accept my final sacrifice.

Unto thee, I bestow, the key to my tattered paradise. "
