A thousand people

As i count each tear that rolls down my face
wish i could bury them in a leaden case
A thousand people walk on by
ignore you as again you try
to open wounds that seem to stain and release you with a wave of pain
but still those thoughts go through your mind
so many emotions, each a different kind
you drop the blade that you hold in your hand
eyes to blurred to see where it will land
i try to catch you before you hit the floor
refuse to hide behind the wooden door
you need to bleed to know your alive
but you kill the soul and the heart you deprive
ill keep by your side and help you walk
there if you need me to listen or talk
but i know that isn't enough for you
when i turn my back i know what you do
i cant keep on, i just cant take it
when you keep carrying on, you don't try to break it
a thousand people walk on by
ignore us as we both now try.
