Speeding silver bullets,

Each name that you fire, 

Shattering stained-glass windows,

Shattering my heart's desire.

Picking up the shards of love,

Bleeding in the process.

Contemplate dropping it all,

Moving on and cutting my losses.

But I can't force myself to do so,

Regardless of how it's destroyed.

I peer into your heart for love,

BUt find it to remain void.

So I glue these shards together,

Forgetting the bullets pain,

And send it back through a text,

For you to shatter all over again.
