how many memories did you kill
to survive this nightmare

how many people did you break
to get through this day

where do you think you can go
when all you have is pity

when do you think it'll stop
the risks you take

get rid of your feelings
stop your emotions and pain

capture your thoughts
stop the pounding in your head

how do you think it'll end
will I break or will you cave

how do you think it'll go
I'll tell the truth and leave you

when do you think it'll happen
in a year? a day? a week?

why do i do this
to myself and to you

why do you do this
to survive? to bleed?

control is implausible to us
none can grasp the feeling

stopping all the bleeding
takes an army of cotton
