Heart shaped situation

none of this ok
all of this leaves me shattered
in a flooded basement
as if my heart
as if my heart
as if my heart
didn't matter

I didn't expect to see you
perfect and torn up
a walking wreckage
of beautiful and battered
 
and that's where my heart is
I took it off your sleeve
but that's not a temporary tattoo
this one bleeds
 
and the way you treat it
like soggy cardboard screams
I thought it was safe
these blasted seams are not to be believed
 
none of this ok
all of this leaves me shattered
in a flooded basement
as if my heart
as if my heart
as if my heart

didn't matter
