She left me with a hollow feeling in my chest.
Not because she took my heart rather
because I decided to cut it out and
lock it away in a safe of insecurities.

Come along
the door may be locked
but I will slip you the key.

I'm ready for something new
where pretty lies will once again
rule my world and trash it about.

I locked my heart away
where no one could reach it
but come along, I'll slip you the key.
