[Myself]

See?
That
That right there is my problem.

I want to open up and effect the people around me.
I do
Really.

I want to say something
Anything!
and for someone to hear and reflect

And I'm so tired of opening up
I'm so dead inside from giving
I've given everything but my heart

Is that what you want
Is that where my fault lies
No heart?

Because if so
What cruel bastards you are
For demanding so much of someone

Just to effect someone
Just to touch them for moment
They need my one and only beating heart

Why am I saying they?
It isn't they
It's you.

Reading this right now
You need to feel my heart
If there is any chance of you believing this

And I just can't give it to you
I don't know why
But I haven't figured out the means to.

So please
Have mercy on me
Because this isn't just a game

This is my life
I've said it in so many different ways
These words are me

Tell me you hear them
Say you reject them
Take my heart and I'll know I've done something important with it.

Have I done what I set out to do?
Have I effected you somehow?
Will I ever know?
