I went away

I went away for awhile
i didn't even go a mile

i went to a thought
it was what i was taught

not to deal with what was wrong
but to mask crying with a song

turn it up so load no on one can hear you
thats what my parents taught me to do

but i found a different way to deal
that to me has much more appeal

i take something pointy and sharp
and the hurt no longer covers me like a tarp

all the pain finally goes away
and I'm OK at least for today
