heartless

don't fall in love with me
i can't love you in return
it can never be
once burnt I learn

my heart is not mine to give
I already gave it away
I'm amazed I still live
from day to day

that is to say I breath
I can still see my reflection
so i must believe
I exist even with my heart's defection

my thoughts belong elsewhere
my actions automatic gestures
my emotions are all despair
my hope and dreams have no future

now I know the walking dead
for I am one
he haunts me in my head
there's no where to run
