I Hope You Are Listening

I wish I could cut you out of my heart
I never knew how far lodged in you were
This process is starting to get messy
The loss of blood is getting to my head
I'm starting to think maybe I should stop now
Sew myself back together
But you'd still be there
Continuing to spread your black venom into my veins
My poor pure heart can't take the abuse
So I keep digging
Keep digging
You will not own me

Maybe if I write this down
Maybe if I say it out loud
Maybe if I stop ignoring the truth
You will leave
