6. heartbreak on high (💔🔛⬆️)

seated on high but
my heart is on low,
ripping apart as i
watch you run off,
happy with someone
that’s better than me,
don’t feign sadness as
i wallow in self-pity.

even as i sit here as
the king on my throne,
it becomes empty when
i don’t have anyone to
share the space with.
harder to deal with now
when the person i want
to share it with has gone
and found someone better.
guess it goes to show how
a position of power can
still leave you longing.

it’s vacant around here,
within these four walls
there’s a void hard to fill.
have you ever felt alone
when everyone’s around?
empty when you’re gone,
but knowing you’re not
gonna make it back, it’s
a feeling hard to grasp.
i don’t have everything
that i could ever want,
because i don’t have you.

guess this is what it’s like
to have heartbreak on high,
feeling your best while also
feeling your worst, it sucks,
no one said that it would
be easy living on top, but
the pain continues to grow
when i’m the only one here.
i hope that one day, i find
someone to give love to,
make them a throne and
they’ll be my world, but
as the days go by, things
start to just look bleak,
the story of the king who
couldn’t even love himself.

heartbreak on high.
