get out of my brain

I can hear you in there now

between my ears

telling me all the things you have said before

that i don’t want to hear

if you can’t find your way out

you can take a short-cut

through the hole in my chest

where you ripped out my heart

in the passenger seat of your car

the place I used to feel safe

 

if this exit doesn’t suffice

you can take one of the two holes

located in the middle of my face

yes, these used to be my eyes

until I ripped them out myself

because I could no longer stand to watch

once I saw you drive away

with her in the passenger seat

that used to be my haven

and you threw my heart away

into oncoming traffic

 

if you still can’t find your way

there is another passage

however be cautious

of the butterflies

that are tearing through my stomach

because they are no longer happy

with the way you make me feel

they will not be merciful if they catch you

and only cause me a gut wrenching pain

everytime i feel you near

they never thought this could be real

so be careful

when you get to close

another hole in my stomach will appear

 

I wish I could just tell you

or take you out myself

but if I’m being completely honest

i wish I could just fix all the things that you broke

inside my fragile body

because once in me

there was a beating heart in my chest

that held so much love

and there was two eyes in the holes of my face

that saw so much love

and there were no holes in my stomach

that was always so hungry for love

 

I suppose that is why they are all broken now

because love can be such a wonderful thing

until you are sitting in the passenger seat of a car

filled with it

and give it to another human

who only wants to take it
