To Change & Fail

by Barbara   Aug 7, 2007


Try to cry away your pain.
But it still feels the same.
Try to run away from your fears.
But they still remain with you here.
Try to drown away the confusion.
But it still all remains a delusion.
Try to smoke away all the hate.
But it remains the thing you can't manipulate.
Try to cut away the shame.
But your still the one to blame.
Try to burn away the emotions you feel.
But they remain the only things thats real.
Cry, cut, drink, smoke, run, burn.
All the ways to get that of which you yearn.
But they never surmount to that of what you want.
So you go around broken inside, outside nonchalant.
