tonight, i will cut my heart open
spill all my words that were left unspoken
tonight, i spill my pain
all my cries that were in vain
the agony, the pleasure, the secrets within
i confide it all within my pen
then scream it to the world
as my thoughts unfurl

my heart
wide open
from healed or broken
i bleed this ink
spill every thought i think
i dig down inside em and wrench something free
my blood on the page is all thats left of me
its all ill ever be

my words they speak all that ive known
all that i love
all i can show
my push, my shove
my life, what ive seen
all my hopes and all that i dream

tonight i cut my heart open
spill these words that were left unspoken
any pain any strife
it melts away
then flows through my veins
as it leaves my body so to does my pain
i bleed this ink
this is every thought i think
my love my need
my hate my greed

my heart
wide open
from healed or broken
i bleed this ink
spill every thought i think
i dig down inside em and wrench something free
my blood on the page is all thats left of me
its all ill ever be

tonight, my heart is wide open
it is no longer broken
but the blood still flows
bleeding roses
bleeding life
bleeding love
bleeding strife
life is gone in a blink
but every drop is sealed in in ink
