Heartache and Heartburn
Sometimes you must go through hell to find heaven
it’s a trip everyone must take
Making excuses is a spark that starts a lie
a fire out of control ravaging the heart
I got a million of them and yet
no amount of tears can heal this burn
Firefighters arrive at the scene only to find
Only to find my smoldering heart
So help me Lord my soul is on fire
So free me Lord I’m so tired
Can’t stop running with a burning heart
Sometimes you must go through hell to find heaven
it’s a trip everyone must take
I’ve been down this road seven or is it eleven times
Maybe more but that’s alright it’s been a strange trip anyway
Her emotions were like an elevator
I had no idea which floor I was on or off
But I’m always been reminded by that look on her face
when she slammed the door in my face realizing
if I can’t break this habit this habit will break me again
So help me Lord my soul is on fire
So free me Lord I’m so tired
Can’t stop running with a burning heart
Sometimes you must go through hell to find heaven
it’s a trip everyone must take
it breaks me up burn’s me up love hurts
It wasn’t her fault but that’s just me
She gave me her heart I returned with heartache
Heartache gives me heartburn
And no amount of tears can put out this fire and
firefighters always late only to shake their heads
when all that remains are the ashes of my heart
So help me Lord my soul is on fire
So free me Lord I’m so tired
Can’t stop running with a burning heart
