Leaking Heart
Shut up Shut up Shut up
I don’t want to hear your whining anymore
I don’t want to hear your excuses
What the heck do you think was going to happen?
The blind don’t lead the blind
What were you expecting with someone who doesn’t even have eyes?
Don't you see how's he shaking you off like a rag doll?!
Break this stupid cycle or leave me out of it.
I gave you a light.
I gave you a match.
It’s your fault if you don’t want it.
Don’t come crying to me when you don’t know what to do.
You do know what to do, little girl. You just don’t want to do it.
So just stop and shut up and listen to the music.
The climax has come.
Either listen or cry.
But don’t do it with me.
I’m done.
My turn not to listen.
If you don’t want to open your eyes and see the wild stabs you are taking at me, here’s my heart.
You feel the holes you put there?
Think about that.
I’m leaving you, cold air where my heartbeat was.
Let me know when you want to give it back. See if you actually can bring it back.

Raw and angry. I've felt these things on occasion. You have captured the jagged edges and, yes, the punctured heart of the situation.
