Van Gogh's Ear

These are words that paint a picture

A picture of love

Words not unspoken

Words not unclear

Words I fear she’ll never hear

Van Gogh’s ear

I’m not gonna break down

I’m not gonna break down

No…not again

I don’t want to break down

Please don’t make me break down

Not again

My life: a still life

Where icicles cry

Tears fall like rain

Walls whisper her name

And I can hear through

Van Gogh’s ear

I’m not gonna break down

I’m not gonna break down

No…not again

I don’t want to break down

Please don’t make me break down

All my faults open wide

And I fall down inside, my broken heart
