Hearts Play~

The heart was played again tonight
a song so sads no words were bright
lyrics and rhythms offbeat, out of rhyme

The heart was played again tonight
no harmony, no dueling banjo fight
notes and lines, its only a matter of time

Her heart was played again tonight
tears crashing down her cheek and gown
a man she adored just disappeared

Her heart was played again tonight
voiceless memories often reappear
and all she feels is the same lonely fear

His heart was played again tonight
scared and running is all he wants
to escape the mind of its whispering thoughts

His heart was played again tonight
the heat came rushing uncontrolled
too much for him to fight and so he chose flight

Sadly though...

Again tomorrow the heart will play
and here we'll be, again in the game
unknowing, willing and yet innocent to it
God only knows... the heart will be played again tonight...
