Eleven.

Get this parasite out of my heart!

Someone,
GET THIS PARASITE OUT OF MY HEART!

It swells
And then it's sucked away.
I can't put you through this
Day after day.

Been remembering, been smiling
Been praying, been crying
Been plugging in those headphones
Screaming for those words to be home

What if I bleed out?
Is that how it will end, then?

Yeah, I've heard it all before.
From everyone else
From myself

Don't want to crack
When I see a shooting star
When I pass the white line
When I walk out to the mailbox
When I wake up

Fighting this poison in my blood.
Waiting until the war is won.
