Heartstrings Tied

Tears drop slow, clock tickin' wrong

Room full of ghosts, but I’m all alone

Heart on my sleeve, stitched but torn

A battlefield of love, left me worn

Falling into shadows, nowhere to hide

Pain’s a heavy chain, pulling my pride

Heartstrings tied, can’t cut loose

Every beat’s a bruise, what’s the use?

Caught in your web, tangled truth

Heartstrings tied, still tied to you

Echoes in my chest, your voice still hums

Every word a bullet, pierces my lungs

Dreams got jagged edges, cut me when I run

Chasing what’s gone, but the race never done

Cold nights, I feel your fire burn

Memories ignite, but they never return

Caught in a loop, lessons I never learn

Heart keeps breaking, every twist, every turn

Heartstrings tied, can’t cut loose

Every beat’s a bruise, what’s the use?

Caught in your web, tangled truth

Heartstrings tied, still tied to you
