fix my heart
Blacken my soul
 Fill my cup with sins
 Replenish the lives that I’ve ruined 
 Give them back all their joy
 So I can live in peace
 At last I never knew 
 My body would crave you
 Blacken my eyes so I can’t see what pain I’ve caused
 Stitch up my mouth
 Before I can do it again
 Bind my hand with razor wire so I’m not tempted to attack 
 Break my ankles so I can’t run and hide
 I want to face what I’ve held inside 
 It’s not too late 
 Just do as I say
 Glue my ears shut so I can’t hear them scream
 Fill my nose with clay so I can’t smell there fear
 Get rid of my mind so I can’t think of them
 Open my chest and fix my heart
 Pull out all the dust and dirt
 Make it so I can love again
 Blacken my eyes
 Stitch up my mouth
 Bind my hand with razor wire
 Break my ankles 
 Plug my nose
 Glue my ears
 Get rid of my brain
 But fix my heart so I can love again…
