My head is so full of words
But my teeth dive into my tongue
To bite back the words that seem so dumb
A part of me that knows I should explain the wheels turning in my head
But I've learned to stay silent
Learned how my past doesn't matter
It is never anything you have done
But rather how others have made me feel
Too ashamed to speak of something so long ago
Why should it matter at all?
My head is never empty
Oh how I wish it would be
To rid myself of all the pain
And finally be set free
Instead I'm left to pour my heart into words
Hoping maybe someone will see
I'm broken beyond repair
No amount of epoxy will do the trick
My peices just no longer stick
They're jagged and sharp
And if you aren't careful, you might get cut
I wouldn't be worth saving
Wouldn't be worth stepping on glass
Do you feel the earquake when you hold me?
When my body can't help but shake
It's not worth swimming through my tears
When you could find a rainbow
You could enjoy the sun
My storms come often
And bring the worst
Yet you have brought an umbrella
And prepared to stay
Maybe you can whether the storms
But don't catch a cold on me
