Pitiful Souls

What lies we have said to each other
Like masks being faced to one another
Offered to wipe my tears when you can't even wipe yours
Offered me company when you do not even let yourself have your own

You have your walls
I struggled peak I had to climb
And I also have mine
That I constantly put on some bricks
So it's a tie

Pitiful souls that struggles to tell
With everything in front of ourselves
Regretful souls, that full of pain
Ready to heal the other but forgotten to heal themselves

With all these lies
Hidden woes and cries
The home that we built
Was all halfway when it burned

No one even tried to fight the fires off
We sat still in the collapsing room
With the burning walls
And the dancing flames that stands tall

You saw me burning the same way
No matter how much I try to hide the pain
As the flames eat you up
And before we both dissipate,

A tear and a dying voice escaped
Both our hands, offering a company and help
"I am fine" both our voices uttered
Both lied and both continued
"Can I help you?"

We died that day
Bodies became burned corpses of such pitiful souls
And today, in my notes,
I still believe we're better off alone

Would I leave if I never knew?
