Hole in My Heart
Mending Love's Fissures: Sam Heilig's Heartfelt Journey
Lyrics
There's a hole in my heart
There is an emotional void or emptiness within me.
Where the love bleeds out
Where the affection or love I feel drains away.
Most times anyone pours it in
Despite efforts from others to fill it.
The more and more I chase
The more I pursue it, the more elusive it becomes.
The more it seems to slip away
Efforts to attain love seem to result in its further loss.
Until I go empty again
Until I feel emotionally depleted again.
I can't think back
I can't recall when the emotional distress began.
To when it started to crack
I sensed its initial fracture without a specific memory.
Just felt it spill out on the ground
It felt as though emotions spilled out uncontrollably.
But I remember when
However, I do remember a time...
It started filling up again
When my emotions began to replenish due to your presence.
When you decided to stick around
Your decision to stay positively affected my emotions.
There's a blind spot in my mind
There's a part of my mind where my self-assurance falters.
Where my confidence goes
Confidence dissipates in this mental blind spot.
I've been burned a time or two
Past experiences have caused emotional harm.
When you build your life on songs
Relying on things that don't fulfill as expected.
That don't reach out quite like you want
Expectations from certain experiences or sources are unmet.
It feels like the blame falls on you
Feeling responsible for these unmet expectations.
Depending on the day
My level of bravery varies depending on the situation.
Well, my courage will stay
At times, courage is locked away and inaccessible.
Locked up tight without a key
It feels impossible to access courage.
But anytime that I just look you in the eyes
Yet, when I gaze into your eyes...
I find that courage staring back at me
I discover courage reflected in your eyes.
I've got a hole in my
I acknowledge the existence of an emotional void within me.
I've got a hole in my heart
Reiterating the presence of an emotional emptiness.
I've got a hole in my
Confirming the emptiness within me.
I've got a hole in my heart
Repeating the acknowledgment of an emotional void.
There's a hole in my heart
Reiterating the existence of an emotional void within me.
Where the love bleeds out
Where emotions continuously escape or fade.
It still happens from time to time
Despite efforts, emotions still occasionally diminish.
No matter where it goes
Regardless of their direction, emotions still deplete.
There's still one thing that I know
Yet, amidst this, one certainty remains...
I can always call you mine
I always have you as a constant in my life.
That makes everything alright
Your presence makes everything feel okay.
Yeah, we'll close that hole in time
Assurance that the emotional void will heal over time with your presence.
