Mommy it hurts

Daddy I'm crying

Please come save me

I think I'm dying

-

Life's not a blur

Shit's not passing by

I tried to save her

But she didn't comply

-

Love was like a good burn, from golden fire

It was the type of burn that took you higher

But when you figure out your conscience is a liar

There's nothing more than death to desire

Taking away the only thing I'd admire

Was like tearing down the web of a spider

-

The spider tries but there's nothing to sue

And when it explains, walks up to you

Not knowing if their apology is true

You kill them cause that's what monsters do

-

Monsters kill because they're scared

They're scared that if they let themselves care

They'll figure out there's a heart in there

And that's worse than any death or despair 

-

They cling onto nothing, just to midair

They don't give a shit if their games are fair

They'll drag you down to their not-so-evil lair

And you won't scream, for you wouldn't dare

-

I told them to hope

They said "haha nøpe"

Washed away happiness with soap

And they started to mope

-

They'd mope about death

Mope about their life

Mope bout their friends

And grab a knife

-

I'd tell them to stop

Convinced them they were loved

But they didn't talk

All they did was shove

-

They shoved the knife into her hands

Told her to try

Promised she wouldn't cry

Promised me she wouldn't die

-

Lie's in the word believe 

And that's what it was

Now I'm told to grieve

But yelled at when I cuss

-

The irony of my family

If they knew that in a week

I've lost more than them in a lifetime

And I haven't got a chance to weep

-

But I weep inside

I want them to know

As I stare into the snow

I scream and yell no

-

No at the perfection

It's not stained with blood

I remember when it once was

I remember when I was in love

-

I'm not anymore

Dreams washed to the shore

All I used to adore

Is rarer than crystal ore
