I’m in love with the wrong words

I’m in too deep in the wrong time

So I pin a heart-shaped scar

over my chest and call it mine

The rhythm’s half asleep

I’m being left behind

Seeing puzzle pieces of a parallel world

I can’t seem to ever find

I want to know what passion is,

I want to make you stay

But I stretch my fingers till they break

and still fail you every day

I’m trying to create a life

Trying to teach you how

to breathe away the pain and

know me and hold me and live for now

But the universe’s stars are blinding,

mask the hollows in your eyes

and maybe if we’re lucky

we’ll end up loving a lie

I’m in love with the wrong words

I’m in too deep in the wrong time

So I pin a heart-shaped scar

over my chest and call it mine
