Was it a Waste

You see, it broke inside us

Tell me you want to cry because

My tears have been stripped away for good

We have lost the art of keeping secrets close

The art itself has become a secret

The only one not like a rose

Those thorns have spread around me

Trying to rip it out of me

The art is kept inside me

As I hold it defiantly

I search for the concrete

Where roses can't be found

But they pull me back to the jungle

And rap their thorns around

They pierce, and I bleed

Yet I refuse to plead

I'll suffer the pain

Because one thing still remains

I have held the art for so long

Knowing if I told, it would be wrong

They ran to the very person who speaks in a haste

Now after all my pain, was it a waste?
