Heading back into my cave
Detoxing from my feelings
Keeping my thoughts to myself
I’ve become heartless
That heartless monster I said I’d never become
With not one ounce of care
My heart is black
Sitting in my cave
Rewinding back
Back to where my heart was black
They say listen to your heart
But my heart is black
Building my walls back up
Letting go of the feelings I once had
It’s not you, its me
I am darker then usual
Leaving everything behind
Trying this new wave
Hoping that I stop losing and finally win one
Realizing that no one is ever ready
Ima take a step back
And let my heart become black
They brought me up
To the point where I was the happiest
Then let me go
Like I was a seasonal fixture
No longer in my feelings
I rather my heart be black
Black without a care in the world
I’m done chasing “what ifs”
And I’m letting go of “what could be”
I’m done appreciating those
Who don’t appreciate me
I’m done caring too much
And being the old me
I’m overdosing on this “ I don’t give a fuck” mentality”
Losing friends along the way but
I’m on this new wave
Gone with the wind
I’ve become this heartless monster
Letting go of the old me
And embracing the new
I’ve allowed my heart to become black
With not once ounce of care
I’ve become this black-hearted monster
