Anybody Want To Buy a Heart

Anybody want to buy a heart? Mine isn't being used
I repaired it after it got broke but then it got removed
I've made myself numb so I've got nothing to lose
Anybody want to buy a heart? Mine isn't being used

I've sacrificed feeling happy as long as I can't get hurt
I'm cool with being numb, it's become my default setting
Now I'm at a stage where I'm already over the one I'm forgetting
My darkest pictures are always my best work

There isn't a girl in this world I'd want to give it to
I don't need it for whatever I end up living through
My feelings are turned off and my emotions are shut
There isn't a key in the world that could open me up

I got hurt too many times to want to feel that again
We all go through struggles and there isn't a wrong way to deal with them
I took my heart out my chest and I won't use it again in my life
I've made myself numb to happiness, sadness and that's alright

I won't give love another chance I'd rather be alone
Had to be my own Dad as my father was gone
He wasn't even there for me before he died
Been a man since I was 14, so I've removed the heart from my insides

Anybody want to buy a heart? Mine isn't being used
I repaired it after it got broke but then it got removed
I've made myself numb so I've got nothing to lose
Anybody want to buy a heart? Mine isn't being used
