I Trace the vein

I trace the vein back to it's source
It leads straight to my heart
It's blood is dark, the color red
Just like a work of art.

One wonders what it would take
To end its pumping ways
I wonder if that heart would break
If it had numbered days.

I know not what will finish this
I know not what is true
All I know is the only one
Woth the power to do so is you!

I wait here for the things you promise
To become what is real
I eat, and breathe what you say
Like it's my final meal.

I get sad and I get down
When you tell me you'll be by
It gets said all the time
By now I know you lie.

I don't need you anymore
I used to think I did
But guess what I realized
I no longer a stupid little kid!

This is over
What we had is gone
Cause I never needed you at all
I should have known that all along.
