  • Oh when I look to the shape of my heart,
    It's separated only by scars
    That cut in and cut out
    Oh and leave me without
    Oh a heart that functions at all.

    And when I look to the shape of the sky,
    I give thanks for this hollow chest of mine;
    That I no longer feel
    The great weight of ordeals
    That can make this life so unkind

    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it show.
    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it grow.

    Oh when the wild was all covered by snow,
    I forgot the colors that the grass tend to grow.
    Oh the trees were all leafless,
    And lifeless and black,
    And I wondered if the leaves could grow back

    For your heart is like a flower as it grows,
    And its the rain, not just the sun that helps it bloom,
    And you don't know how it feels to be alive,
    Until you know how it feels to die

    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it show.
    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it grow.

    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it show.
    oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it grow.

    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it show.
    Oh and if there's any love in me,
    Don't let it grow Writer/s: CHARLES FINK
