Goodbye

This world around me is tumbling down
Your arms are the safe spot that I've found
Smiles, they warm me to the bone
Words, like cherries on an ice cream cone
Kisses, a light in my dark mind
Your hand, I will never let it let go of mine

I see judgment on all of your faces
Discrimination against different races
Religion is a big one too,
If they're not yours they're no good to you
All of us got here some way
Because of the path our pasts picked out for today

My mind is a wreck
Filed with pain, shame and many regrets
Yeah, I've got problems, so do you
But I've tried to deal, so should you
Scars now covering my wrists and thighs
Eyes will search but none can find

Tear streaking down my cheek
Caused by a future looking real bleak
I'll miss you more than you'll ever know
And you'd run through rain, wind and snow
Cuz they're taking you away from me
Far from good friends but you'll have family
