1So here I am
A love worn masochist
With hearts carved straight upon my chest
Letting the carpet soak up all that's left
Sweet crimson stains
Pull up your sleeves
Slit wrists oblivious to pain
Run a fingertip across my wounds
Meet the real me
Lap up my sour blood
Ripe with long lost romance
Skin peels from skin that never really lived
Lusting for darkness
The only place you truly see
Failed suicide
On an empty mind
Inadequate
Bleed until it's over
I told them I'd stop
But I've never been one to keep promises
This big secret they don't want to tell
But they want everyone to know
Corrosive drugs stain your throat
Poured with care across closed and waiting lips
Tears leak from beautiful eyes
Pausing at your sharp cheekbones
External apologies
Written in time
Tonight she looked so beautiful
With bloodshot eyes and makeup smeared
The stars just sit there and glimmer like they don't see her pain, and the rain just pours and mocks us in our death
The world goes on as we die inside
It's been a long and fucked up road, but we run home
Where it's dysfunctional and safe
To those afraid of silence
Judge my words
And read my scars
Stories carved across my wrists
Trailing up my arms
I guess this is just what happens
It's been a long and fucked up road, so I'll run home
Where it's dysfunctional and safe
And lose faith in the world
All over again
