put my hand on my chest
to make sure my heart hasn't left
you see it likes to wander
so all i have is my brain to ponder
it digs itself deep into the ground
i can feel it pulling me down
each heavy step i take
every breath i make
my heart tries to come back
but the monsters scream and attack
my chest is empty
my brain filled to the brim
i can't feel my own skin
i'm numb all over
i need my heart closer
as soon as it leaves
it wants to return
it never learns
next time just stay
won't have to drag myself through another day
my heart is long gone
everything is wrong
