My heart is covered over,
With the finest sheen of ice,
Nothing ever will break through,
It sets the highest price.
My heart is sticky, full of tar,
The blackest of the black,
Carnivorous and tainted too,
I said: it will not crack.
My heart is empty deep inside,
I so not feel, no more,
I suffer yet I do not hurt,
It's silent at its core.
My heart is shattered underneath,
And no one understands,
It can be healed with just one thing:
The touch of love's warm hands.
