Coffins in My Head

Do you see that I buried all my needs

Just so you could feel loved

And even after all this

I was never enough

I thought loving you would heal me

But it pushed me to my grave

Did you not see that

It was me, who needed to be saved

I carry these coffins in my head

One for every word I never said

I feel so much pain inside, yet still I carry on

Heart's beating slower, but it still beats on

I did my best, I really tried

But I'm not okay... I keep that locked inside

Though you see no tears in my eyes

Know that my heart is still drowning in endless cries

I carry these coffins in my head

One for every time I've bled

I feel so much pain inside, yet still I carry on

Heart's beating slower, but it still beats on

Told myself I wouldn't cry

But when the world goes quiet

My heart still breaks

For the promises you left behind
