Getting Hard

by Amanda   Dec 15, 2005


Its getting harder to wake up
Every morning in these shoes
I want to pick you up and lace you in them
So you too, can feel my blues

Its proving hard to close all these doors
And hide behind this face
But everyday I do find the strength
To keep it all in place

Ive felt enough to know the worst
Such a young girl, years of only fourteen
Watching my blood flow to a pattern- Its all already been seen

I treated it as normal
And with a breath, hoped it would pass
But be-friending the saviour with a jagged edge
I was promised this would last

The question was
Why did I feel so scared?
Nothing to save me,
Just f**king metal, Im so unprepared

And as I write this last line,
Ill remember this moment, Ill treasure this time,
Ill try and patch my whole life up, Ill glue the seams........
Ill keep it shut.
