For all the bleeding hearts, who hoped it would be different this time around...

You hoped it would be different this time
Something real in between the hard work
And the moment where nothing makes sense

Something real...
A seed growing
With real roots, in real soil
Something true

It is always your hopes that gets you
Cut you the deepest
Not the guilt, not the blame
Neither the false accusations
Nor the hate of their turned backs

No... Always yourself
Your own heart, your own dreams
Your own remembrance
So deep

Of glowing hearts
Of a flame burning
As One

Gets you every time
To your knees
Crumbled
Humbled

Remembering how it was
How it was down here
The last time
How all was shown to you
Just to make you smile
To make your heart glow
Like it always did

Like it always did

To strip that away
To leave you lonely
Naked in the rain
Broken

You hoped it would be different this time
You really did
Always is your hopes
Your dreams
Of love, beauty, truth
That cuts you
The deepest

Still you walk
Step by step
Heart by heart
All you want or need
Only hurts
Cuts you deeper

Yet still you love
Still you care

It is the bleeding heart
Which love the deepest
And it is the broken soul
Which reach the furthest...

Every step you chose to love
For real
Every moment
Even though your wings are clipped
You shine
You share

Only together
Of all our broken souls
Of all our bleeding hearts

Only together
Through all of our tears
And through all of our reasons to leave

Only there we find a way
Only there we can plant that seed
Which grows for real
In real soil
With deep roots

Only this way
Together
One
We will make it
Real
Make it different
This time around
