remember when this didn't seem so hardremember when your voice was that of a lions
when you didn't require to much space to be living on this earth
remember when you were living in this earth
i can't tell you when i first saw you slip
to cold and tired
but I can tell you the moment i knew you were never going to survive
it was the middle of the day
Taylor Swift lyrics marched across that computer that sat in your living room
letting it drowned out your mothers screams
your screams
your poetic alcohol
i saw you looking back at me
mirror with silver lips, whispering words no makeup could hide
that was the first time i remember you wanting to die
you saw them and me
i know darling you didn't understand
why life had to be more car crash then roller coaster
why boys smiled with your flesh in their teeth
you prayed so hard that faith turned you blind
those kids that called themselves christian, the first razor into your skin
say god is the color of whatever building you decide to jump off of
say boys will be boys
say well stop wearing skirts to school then
you had no choice but to give in, I know
but I can't help wonder
would you still be here if you had?
