Tears and Bullets

by EMMAlouise   Nov 27, 2007


Im the mist on your windows,
The breath upon the broken glass,
The chaos that will forever roam,
Across your hands.

And Ill never die.

And when you try to sleep,
Ill be the body beneath your bed,
The voice inside your head,
The victim of your sick and twisted dreams

Let me bleed my tears,
Into your heart,
As bullets rip our worlds apart
And then we ll start,
With my hopes and fears,
Oh I tried so hard,
I bled for hours, I ran so far,
To wind up here.

Im the smoke in your bedroom,
The lock upon your heavy door,
The guilt that will just smother you,
And then scream out for more.

The scorch on each page,
Of your life story,
The flame, that asks the same,
Why do you still want me?

Let me bleed my tears,
Into your heart,
As bullets rip our worlds apart
And then we ll start,
With my hopes and fears,
Oh I tried so hard,
I bled for hours, I ran so far,
To wind up here.

Im the reason that your house is not a home,
The voice that leaves lies after each and every tone,
The line between more than friends and all alone,
And on your own
No
Im the truth trapped in your throat.

Let me bleed my tears,
Into your heart,
As bullets rip our worlds apart
And then we ll start,
With my hopes and fears,
Oh I tried so hard,
I bled for hours, I ran so far,
To wind up here,
to collapse so near,

    My favorite stanza is:

    -Let me bleed my tears,
    Into your heart,
    As bullets rip our worlds apart
    And then we ll start,
    With my hopes and fears,
    Oh I tried so hard,
    I bled for hours, I ran so far,
    To wind up here.-
