Mourning Skies

Ignorance

No one suspected

I died inside

They didn't see

The scars I'd hide

i wore my tears

But my mouth stayed tight

So the demons wouldn't

Make me fight

You don't understand

That much I know

Don't bother defending it

Your ignorance does show

Just take a breath

And I'll be gone, they say

It won't be much different

I swear, i'll be okay

I won't feel the pain

Or the sting of your words

How much they shamed me

They cut deeper than swords

You can't take what's not there

And for that was my life

As I go into the spiral

And dance with the knife
