Heartbeat

Common

Words I breath in
Quickly forgotton
Like a rich man's sin
I'm at the bottom
Where it's colder
Than the heart's ice
Looking over my shoulder
Hoping grit will suffice
Black thoughts done
Gone and signed
My life away on
The words I've rhymed
If it's strength I need
I'll find it elsewhere
But now since I bleed
I'll pretend to care
