Heart, Hammer, and Spike

The hammer represents you

The heart represents me

The spike represents our relationship

I hope now you can see

That every thing you do tears me in two

Bit by bit and piece by piece

Until there is very little left of my heart

Why don’t you give in

Why don’t you quit

Not every battle is one you can win

I want you to love me

I want you to care

And when people see us

I want them to stare

They should be in awe

But they aren’t, you know why

Because every time they see us

One is about to cry

Stop being the hammer

That drives the spike

And be the band-aid

That brings back our life
