Your Heart On My Sleeve

I'm wearing your heart on my sleeve,
bloody and bleeding,
and a note held by a knife reading,
I really do love you,
and the smile on my face is only insanity,
I whispered the words, I'm fine,
but it wasn't good enough, and you didn't buy the lie

The slits on a throat of "love hurts"
I'm sorry to admit but inside I'm mentally sick
Your knowledge is slipping away and getting lost
In all of this bullshit

Heartache never really goes away
Say you're over it but it's only "moving" on and the result of time
"Thats over and in my past" is only a movie line
Your actions never cease, they never disappear
Once somethings been born it's presence is always there, even before

My face is on the pavement, falling asleep
Dreams turn to nightmares because of reality, we wake up
I dreampt of you, and how it never shows,
and the only conclusion to this wall of confusion
Is only the pieces of the truth that I lack
So I guess the only way to make this dillema no longer exist
Is a knife, dull, rusted, and cracked driven into your back

Author notes

This is about revenge anger sadness abuse and the betrayal which can result because of love. Love doesn't really seem to ever die from what I've seen and this is about that. However if you see it some other way, I would like to hear your perspectives.
