Head And Heart At War

My heart has had enough
It's tired of mending just to break
It's screaming at my head
'There's no more pain I can take.'

It's shouting at my mind
I'm tired of being bruised
No more can I be ripped in two
And spend my life confused.

You're supposed to keep your heart healthy
It's what keeps me strong
But you're abusing me constantly
Surely you know this is wrong?

My mind is yelling back
You're the one that wont let go
Please give him up now
We're both about to blow.

All you do is think about him
My heart pleads with my head
So tell me how to let him go
When you wish that you was dead.

I'm not the one who's still in love
My mind is screaming back
I know that he is bad for us
Yet you can't accept that.

My heart is getting angry
As it shouts 'you're a fool'
You're the one crying constantly
You're the one that broke our rule.

The rule of trusting anyone
The rule of getting close
Of him you couldn't get enough
Of him you overdosed.

We've lived with the same golden rule
For the last few years
The golden rule is to trust no one
So simple and it stops our tears.

My mind is screaming back
You're the one that skips a beat
Everytime you see him
You will warm with heat.

So don't call me fool
When we both went wrong
The important thing now is
For us to stay strong.

How can we stay strong
When all we do is fight
We wont ever agree
Who is wrong and who is right.

As I listen to my head and heart
I can't help but roll my eyes
I take a deep breath
And let out an audible sigh.

I knew I shouldn't have fallen in love
Or even given him a hug
When I was in his arms
I always felt safe and snug.

I knew I shouldn't have kissed his lips
Nor let him kiss mine
But when we were together
I thought that it would be fine.

I knew I shouldn't have whispered in his ear
Nor should I have let him caress my jaw
Because now all I have done
Is put my head and heart at war.
