tie down

promises hold you back
emotions are a weakness
being close just ties you down
im so sick of letting everyone down
if i show pain
everybody else feels like a letdown
my wrists ache
my knuckles trob
my lungs burn
and my throat is parched
every escape
every release
any little method to subdue this curse
forbidden by a promise
and reinforced by fucking emotions
hurt your self hurt her
hurt her hurt your world
life would be a whole hell of lot easier
if i didnt feel a damn thing
every god forsaken sensation gone
just be cold like i was
i miss that
at least there when i was a failure
it didnt matter
nothing did
emotions were only surface deep
fuel that armor with a steady flow of
ThC liquor and some little white candies
cold hard steel to polish my wrists
keep that armor in good condition
and youll be safe from that cold hard world
