Peace Truth

Sep 8

If you knock on my heart once You'll hear the hollow cries And the echoes of the whispers Of a girl who used to fly If you knock on my heart twice You just might hear the story Of a girl who loved the ones Who stripped her of her glory If you knock on my heart thrice You'll find my crumpled soul But do not be too upset If you cannot make it whole For there are so many people Who've torn me inside out And the ones who try to heal me Have there eyes etched with doubt I'm like a broken doll My only sounds are tinned And the badges of my solitude Over my chest they are pinned I know that I'm almost gone That my heart is like a grain But there's something you can do That'll make music once again Knock on it once then twice Then knock on it ten times more You'll hear the tune of a song Of a girl who loves to soar
