So my soul doesn't crave this numbing life,
I write.
Today I read the word pain,
While running along my lonely road
And remembered what I did
They don’t dare guess
The day my world fell apart because
My heart cried so silently and tears, they just couldn’t come
But the words did
And so I write
Even though I stand up straight in front of you
My heart barely beats until the music begins
And so I write.
I lose myself to the power of pen on paper
Revealing my thoughts in riddles and rhyme
It just feels right
And so I write
I pray the sun to blind me from this pain and the moon to make sure I rest at night.
Because when I sleep, I dream.
And of you, it seems...because I wake up hurt
And I write
Remember, I lied, I said I was OK.
If only they read between the lines
I might have to admit what you did
But every day is a bit of hope for things to get better
And so I write.
