Stubborn Heart

Based on a song.

This stubborn heart,
Is keeping my words,
From coming out.
This stubborn heart,
Is what is keeping me around,
Because it won't let me die.
This stubborn heart,
Is making me live,
Even though sometimes I don't want to.
This stubborn heart,
Has kept me sane,
From every insane person I know.
This stubborn heart,
Is keeping the real me,
Locked away.
This stubborn heart,
Makes me act different,
Not myself.
Because of this stubborn heart,
You will never know the real me,
Or what I'm about.

Please stubborn heart,
Let me go,
Let me live,
Let me breathe,
Please stubborn heart,
Let me be real,
Let me be sane,
Let me be whole,
Please stubborn heart,
Don't lock me away,
Don't make me act different,
Don't let me die,
Please stubborn heart,
Don't kill me,
Don't hurt me,
Don't let me hurt.
Please stubborn heart,
Let me live,
Let me heal,
Let me do everything,
I need to survive.

Author's Note

I came up with this because of some of the words from a song called Wish my Olivia Lufkin. A very good English/Japanese singer. "Baby my would is crumbling down. I'm totally upside. My words are stuck inside of this stubborn heart." The translation in English.

Awww! I thought this was beautiful. There was a lot of emotion in it. I loved it. It would make a really cool song. I can't quite decide what genre it would be, though... What do you think?

Thanks for the reviews, by the way! :D

Pretty good with the repetitive lines. Very lyrical. The end works well as an abrupt line "I need to survive."
