Your Overcrowded Heart

I wrote this a few nights ago, poetry/lyrics

they say not to judge a man

before you walk a mile in his shoes

but don't take over for me yet

hell isn't so far away for me now

don't look on me in pity

you stood by and watched me fall apart

she said its over now

and I don't know if it ever really was

but not today, take your pity 

somewhere else and let me hold onto my sorrow, 

cold and broken in the dark

watch me burn away slowly from your,

 overcrowded heart

I never asked for this pedestal

you put me on it and worshipped me for what?

I never said I was strong enough

but you leaned on me til I caved in

don't blame me for finding 

the bottom of another bottle

when you were the one who 

showed me where they were stored

but not today, take your pity 

somewhere else and let me hold onto my sorrow, 

cold and broken in the dark

watch me burn away slowly from your,

 overcrowded heart

you could've just told me

you were not the one for me

and I was not the only one for 

your lonely nights, with those lovely thighs

I admit I may of cried, but you will never

see the pain in these eyes.
