ACHES [Wattys Winner 2015]

Fix me but you can't

You can try mending my heart,

You can try all you want,

The cries of sorrow still hold me,

In every feeling, melancholy, still I see.

Go ahead, try breaking my walls,

But remember my heart will push you out fiercely,

It is not that it doesn't want to be fixed and happy,

But it doesn't believe in happiness anymore, really.

So, fix me all you want,

Try showing me the lights to follow,

But my heart is irreparably damaged,

And I fear when all your efforts go in vain,

It will make you like me, hollow.
