Vanilla

Poison drips from your mouth
As you look at me in disgust

Respect shines off me like gold
But your "respect" has rusted

You speak to me
Like scum on the bottom of your shoes

I treat you like a queen
You don't touch
That dirty floor

But that's the difference
Between you and I

I tend to respect thy houses
But you-
you tend to break them down

Piece by piece
Brick by brick

Silenced by thread
Covered in concrete

I am a strong woman
And you're the weakness that bleeds

Bleeds through your eyes
Out of your mouth

It's not red
But it is purple

And tainted from inside out
As the devils creeps up behind you

Taking a peak at your soul
They set to see the truth

Behind the tainted words
Lies a beautiful young woman

Who was broken beyond repair
And this-
This is them trying
This is me, trying
