Debts to my own heart

I’m getting used... to being all alone.
I pay with soul, for debts I’ve long outgrown.
I lose their names, their faces fade from view...
And call for silence, to begin anew.
She is my solace, where the shadows blend...
My only witness, and my only friend.

The night knocks on my window, with the stars.
Till dawn I carry, all my hidden scars.
I thought the debts were settled... every score.
But find I cannot, give them back no more!
The one who never loved, will never part...
But I still carry love, within my heart.

The weight of loneliness, is hard to bear.
I face my fate... a hangman in his chair.
Decide my life... the prophecy is done.
Between my tears and laughter, I’m the one.
In silence, like a washing of the soul...
I tell the truth, to make my spirit whole.

Forgive me, those I sent with heavy word...
To ancient temples, where no prayer was heard.
I thought the debts were gathered... every part.
But I'm the one in debt... to my own heart.
Yes... I'm the one in debt... to my own heart.

Still loving...
Still paying...
To my own heart.
