Broken

It's funny
That I feel so broken
For I don't remember
Handing you the hammer
For I don't remember
Taking out my heart in the open
For I don't remember
Offering it to you

I thought I was just opening a window

Just for a little more light to come through
Just for a little more breeze to gently caress me
Just for a little while until I draw back again from you

But I guess that's the funny thing about temptation

Once you acknowledge it
Once you say just a little
Once you say maybe

You won't notice now how far you've fallen in the pit
Until you've fallen in the pit
And there's darkness around you

A different darkness than before
Because before it was your whole body wrapped around your heart that was blocking the sun
Now it was his stain - black and daunting - that is all over your skin even after he was gone
