Calloused

Here I am in my bedroom,

Calloused fingertips on guitar strings

Now that I found out who you are,

Since our friendship's very beginning

The concern all a facade,

And yet I fell for it

Your love all a mirage,

But I still made a run for it

Every plucked string,

A broken note

The complete melody,

A shattered hope

Now the song ends,

With a statement final:

My heart mends,

Now calloused from this trial.
