Tried again and lost
confused and defeated
by all Ive seen
still I'm here
and still i wait
for what, i may never know
maybe I'm still waiting
for a reason to let go
leave this alone
let it swallow me
before i gain the strength
to fight again
Ive swallowed your lies
bought them over and over
word for every diseased word
and found solace again
in the facade
i had always hoped
you would lie to make me
feel better
burnt that face again
the face of the child
you hide
deep inside
toss and turn again
to race the scream
and face the dream
