A hand atop a hollow chest
Only a smile, with a nod at best.
Life goes on, unimpressed,
As broken hearts come to rest.
Time goes on, as you shall see.
There's love and pain, to some degree.
Scars need soothing, so lean on me.
The pain will pass, I guarantee.
I see your pain through your smile.
Life's not easy, but worth the while.
It can be harsh, it can be guile,
But think of pain as just a trial.
Come on, now, let's not pretend;
Our hearts are what we must defend.
So let us live and let love mend
All our scars until the end.
