Leather Heart
December 26, 2009
A girl with so much heart
Still seen as too young
On her knees as her world falls apart
Asking to be strong
Always been perfect
She would be seen as nothing less
But the pain isn't worth it
And she wont confess
That inside shes still small
Going through life tumbling
Jumping, not judging the fall
Between broken hearts and parted lips, shes fumbling
But with every bruise her defenses are better
Pulling away as her skin turns to leather
