Heartstrings are meant to be tugged
but only by the most careful hands
When played by thoughtless lovers
there is no music to be heard
only the howls of lonely hearts
So before you give your heart away
listen to your lover's song first
When their heart sings of soft comfort
only then it won't lead yours astray.
