With heartfelt lyrics and a soulful melody, 'The Antique Heart' captures the essence of fleeting moments and the importance of healing.
Verse 1:
I walked into a store of antiques,
Where memories linger in the creaks,
Amongst the treasures, I saw her glance,
A girl by the counter, lost in a trance.
Chorus:
She bought a heart, so bright and bold,
With skin like marshmallow, tender and cold,
Was it too heavy, I couldn’t foresee,
But it slipped from her hands, oh, the tragedy.
Verse 2:
It fell to the ground with a sorrowful sound,
Shattered into pieces, all around,
Her eyes filled with tears, a heart-wrenching sight,
But she won’t be sad for the rest of the night.
Chorus:
A heart once broken, never mends right,
But she’ll rise again, with the morning light,
For life is a cycle of joy and despair,
And in the end, we all must repair.
Bridge:
Before I left that old, dusty place,
I saw a flier that made me retrace,
'If you break it, you own it,' the words did declare,
Of course you do, you idiot, life’s never fair.
Outro:
The antique heart, it’s just a display,
Reminds us of love’s fragile ballet,
So cherish the moments, the joy and the pain,
For hearts that have broken can still love again.

i went to a store of antiques, saw someone buying a heart. it was a girl, her skin marshmallow soft. was it too heavy for her, i do not know, it fell and broke into many pieces, before she could take it home. she was sad, but won't be forever; but a heart once broken, never comes together. before i left the shop, i saw a flier, saying "if you break it you own it". of course you do, you idiot.
