advil.

I need advil.
Will it heal my broken heart?
I need pain reliever.
Because this organ is torn apart.
I need something to save me.
From this pain I hold deep inside.
Maybe it hurts because something
Part of me just died.

It got crushed under jealousy,
And hidden under lies.
It was stepped on by hate,
And trampled by good byes.
And if it couldn’t withstand
Any more of that pain.
You gave it your love
And drove it insane.

Accepting me at my worst,
Loving me at my best.
I only gave my friendship,
But you went and stole the rest.
I walked to that cliff,
Never planning to fall.
But now I’m so deep,
Can’t hear anything but your call.

You promised your truth,
Along with your heart.
And even when you failed,
I allowed a new start.
I gave you a chance.
And a second one as well.
So why didn’t you catch me?
When off the cliff I fell?

I followed your voice,
Hoping it would lead me to light.
But all the evasion and deceit
Forced me to give up without a fight.
My heart is now broken.
It’s bruised beyond repair.
How can I make the pain go away?
How can I make it possible to bear?

I need advil.
Will it heal my broken heart?
