POISON



You sit by and watch

Saying things like "She's getting better now"

"She seems to smile more"

You're so blind by what you want to see

You could never see me



I played the part and took the blame

While you pretended it was all okay

Light turned black as you would sleep

Ignorance is bliss



But the cuts are getting deeper now

The blood makes it all feel real

The signs are there if you'd just notice me

But you chose to pretend it's okay



Each day that passes thins my sanity

I cannot talk I don't know how

I can't tell you what is wrong

I can't find words, they are lost to me

You look past my eyes, you cannot see my soul

You see the pretty smile and not it's transparency

You are blind to the decay that lies beneath

Rotting more each day

I am not pretty, stop calling me beautiful

If you could only see the ugliness

The truth that I see

You would run and hide

Knowing that I am only a poison



Take another breath to find a distant sanity

And turn the pain into truth

Walking through a life decayed

While you're repeating your mistakes

There's another chance to believe in faith

And stop depending on me



I need a crutch to walk on

A hand to help me stand

I am collapsing under the weight

Of carrying you

Innocence and ignorance

They both go hand in hand

But I am always honest with you

So I hope you understand

I know that I am wrong

As I have often been

But I hope that you still see

The love that has no end

I know I’m nothing special

Nothing that’s unique

An introverted shell of darkness

Not much that I can fake

I have devoted my soul to you

But I feel your heart has changed

And before I start to drift

And can’t speak the words again

Tie me to this tree and then

Turn around and go home

So you can let me die for you

And I can die alone
