Heart Unfixed - Niko Jarell
Raindrops fall on empty streets
Carrying echoes of old beats
Soft piano hums through the haze
Tracing shadows of lost days
Every breath feels sharp and cold
Memories cling like stories told
I move forward yet I stare
At a heart that's barely there
I thought time could mend the seams
But some pain stays in silent dreams
A heart past repair, still alive
Beating slow, just trying to survive
With the love I couldn't keep
With the nights I spent awake, not sleep
Days move on, yet I remain
Learning how to feel the pain
A heart past repair, not broken, just
Holding on to what I must
A subtle bass beneath my chest
Carries weight I can't confess
Edison strips light the rain
Falling soft on quiet strain
I've learned to smile, to walk, to breathe
Though some nights steal the peace I weave
Every silence holds the scar
That becomes just as far
I let go
But shadows stay
Time can't take the ache away
A heart past repair, still alive
Beating slow, just trying to survive
With the love I couldn't keep
With the nights I spent awake, not sleep
Days move on, yet I remain
Learning how to feel the pain
A heart past repair, not broken, just
Holding on to what I must
A feeling comes in gentle streams
Why do echoes haunt my dreams
I'm not lost, I've only loved
Some hearts live where they once burned
A heart past repair, I stand
Holding pieces in my hand
The pain is soft, my soul survives
I'm still here, still alive
Piano fades, I remain
Not ashamed of what sustains
A heart past repair, and that's okay
It shows I loved along the way
Time didn't fix me
But it
