Dear Heart

Dear heart,

Being brokenhearted doesn't suit me
Being lonely doesn't amuse me
And being vulnerable is just abusing

So let's take a different approach
A different tactic
And with some practice
We'll bounce back like the springs in a mattress

But this time you have to listen to me
Don't give give it up to any man just cuz they says they're different than he
Or him from lifetimes past
Check him out first let's see if it lasts

Oh things are going good? Don't be so naive
Just because he plays the part well doesn't mean he don't have tricks up his sleeve
So keep those beats at ease
Just because his smile makes you weak in the knees
doesn't mean that your free
To go give him the keys
To the kingdom of us you me and we

But you did it anyway. Now where are we now?
Suffering from his glory of our defeat
Stuck in purgatory from his deceit

I tried to warn you. Now we do it my way
And with our power combined
We'll be tough like the
Needles on a porcupine
No more Laying it on the line
then getting hung out to dry
We'll find someone worth the time
Of yours and mine

But you have to listen to me now
Include me in on the plays
Make me part the fray
I'll keep the unworthy at bay
Love isn't enough these days

You'll find someone to love and someone I can trust
I don't ask for much
Just
For us to stay in touch
When it comes to this crux
Of our existence

He is out there
Let me find him
& I'll let you love him

As sincerely as possible,
Brain
