Lying Blade

Deep within the heart that lies within me
A deep bloody sore begins to fester
Your lies held the edge of a sharpened blade
That played tic-tac-toe on my broken heart

I wanted to believe in the magic
I wanted to see rainbows in my skies
I wanted to share the richest blessing
That Jesus placed deeply within my soul

I have now given up on miracles
So tired of swimming against the tide
Thirst and hunger a soul begging for love
But welcomes death and the release of pain
