Old Wounds Don't Heal

by xXxIf You Only KnewxXx   Dec 14, 2007


The loneliness and pressure's pushing down on me.
You think I can fight but I'll never be free.
Pain shoots up my arm as I punch the wall with a CRACK.
Racing through my mind...words I can't take back.

Try so hard but old habits don't break.
Memories of the past take and take.
Scars fade but the wounds don't heal;
Sometimes my eyes don't see what you say is real.

I'm stuck in place with the world speeding by.
Am I OK? I just open my mouth and lie.
You might see the truth if you could look in my eyes
But you're so far away so I keep telling lies.

I stand up straight with the weight on my shoulders,
The last three years have made me feel 20 years older.
