Barbed Wire Heart

Barbed wire heart… I’m coiled tight with rusty barbs, every heartbeat draws fresh blood Love left hooks buried deep where the soft parts used to flood I smile through the tearing flesh, let the metal kiss my skin Every scar’s a warning carved where the healing should’ve been I loved too hard, I loved too deep, now I’m dangerous to hold A beautiful disaster wrapped in wire and freezing cold Don’t get too close… you’ll bleed for sure… This is my barbed wire heart, razor sharp and dripping red Cutting through the silence with the words I never said I’m dangerous, I’m broken, I’m vicious and divine Every touch becomes a wound, every kiss becomes a crime Barbed wire heart… feel the sting I’m giving one hundred fifty percent of everything I used to be all softness, petals in the morning rain Now I’m steel and thunder, coiled tight with silent pain Every promise that you whispered left another hook in me Now I wear them like a crown of thorns for the world to see Come closer if you dare, taste the blood upon my tongue This heart don’t love gentle… it only loves when it’s been stung This is my barbed wire heart, razor sharp and dripping red Cutting through the silence with the words I never said I’m dangerous, I’m broken, I’m vicious and divine Every touch becomes a wound, every kiss becomes a crime Barbed wire heart… feel the sting I’m giving one hundred fifty percent of everything I warned you… BUT YOU CAME ANYWAY! Now you’re tangled in my wires, bleeding out my name This heart don’t heal easy… it only cuts the same This is my barbed wire heart, torn and dripping wild and red Sharp enough to save me, sharp enough to leave you dead I’m dangerous, I’m honest, I’m the storm you can’t control A beautiful disaster with a razor-wire soul Barbed wire heart… this is me Sharp enough to kill… but still bleeding free Barbed wire heart… Still sharp… Still bleeding…
