born without a heart

there's no pounding in my chest
no jackhammer jumpstarts to my brain
I tried my level best
but I wound up wounded just the same
there's something wrong inside me
but I've finally found the missing part
I was born without a heart
I was born without a heart

I look for love to come
but it just keeps walking by
me and love
we just can't see eye to eye
my head ain't connected
and my soul keeps coming apart
I was born without a heart
I was born without a heart

          come and change me
          rearrange me
          ain't it strange we humans are
          always placing hope
          on some distant falling star
          over and over again
