If you have a big heart it gets heavy,
as if a stone hangs from your chest,
that was put there by the people
who lied and said they’d give their best.
If you have a big heart you’ll get tired
of all the things you’ve left unsaid,
for there are words you could have spoken
that would have filled your heart instead.
If you have a big heart you’ll feel burdened
by all the hopefulness you hold.
You’ll grow weary of compliance
but still do everything you’re told.
If you have a big heart it gets heavy,
and you may feel it weighs a ton.
There will be times you feel defeated,
but having a big heart means you’ve won.
