here it is returned



slanted scorched and burned



knoted twisted tied up with strings



stapled, glued band aided with things



if i throw it to you



will you try to catch



this thing i'm replused to hold



this horrible wretch



barb wire and stitches



it's clearly been torn



been trampled in ditches



because of the way it was worn



this heart mortgaged by my dreams my life



failed to make a payment so i've slit it with a knife



and this is the gift i get for giving my life?



but where are my dreams, i'm bound in a strife



so here it is returned



slanted scorched and burned



knotted twisted tied up with strings



stapled, glued band aided with things
