emotions - funny little things
they play, play, play
throwing poor hearts around
for clubs to beat them
and all it takes is a diamond to conquer them.
sometimes not,
for diamonds are hard to find,
and we dig graves with our spades in hand
falling into them with no regard
to the paper hearts
that have been crushed by the clubs
and though fragile, our paper hearts still beat
some of us hide them underground
using spades and spades of dirt
just like that, the clubs can't hurt them
some of us tape them on our sleeves
like armour against the clubs
and through time,
they harden to diamond.
emotions - funny little things
they play, play, play.
