I don't think they knew Or bothered to ask.
I just can't seem To even relax
For tears of hanging flesh Are littered on my skin
They can't see past it for I remain a sin
I drown in the demons of my past
I can name from first to last
Like the rain has stained us to rest
It wipes our tears the best.
Don't tell me it gets better, i know it can't
Yet to take their light, I shan't
My cries fall upon deaf ears so there's no way to tell
If I can ever truly get out of this hell.
I've been awaiting, my dear
For now, I fear
My scars will show, but never say
Your words are keeping me this way
