There's a sadness
That can't be cured at times
Not by drawing or singing
To tunes and rhymes
Maybe a heartbrokenness such as this
Could open my eyes
To break my ignorance
And see your lies
But even then
I doubt the truth
I wander blind
As those of youth
So where was I
When this ll went to hell?
Was I still asleep?
Was I safe in my shell?
Well my shelter is broken
And I'm exposed to it all
I'm beginning to regret
When for you I began to fall
So bind my eyes
And blind me once more
Turn off the lights
Lock the door
I'm swinging blind punches
As you two laugh at my pain
The sting of your words
Are driving me insane
Beaten to a pulp
You take off my blindfold
You kiss again
In each other's warm hold
A white fury inside me
Burns like a flame
I leap from my position
And cry your name
But you're long gone
It's clear to me, though,
I wish I would've stopped
His voice from taking you
