Scream in my car
Scream from afar
Can't forget these dreams
Reoccurring screams
Finally being able to speak
Finally proving I'm not weak
Imagine your cower
As I begin to shower
You with your actions
Allowing no traction
You grab me and swear
But I do not care
He broke me - choked me
Every word was a lie
How did I get by?
Why did I comply?
I'm not a victim, no fucking weakling
You have not an inkling
Because it's all you knew
Dragging everyone down with you
Oh so dramatic, prone to crying
Worked well at combining
Control, manipulation and jealousy
Your evil ways are no fallacy
I don't need to embellish
The insanity you relish
For instance - your throat
Lined with a coat
Of dust that's collected
Every time you protected
Your fear of being alone
So suicidal prone
It's all that you've shown
But talk is cheap
Feel free to weep
Your tears prove dry
All you do is a lie
Every word was a lie
How did I get by?
Why did I comply?
I'm not a victim, no fucking weakling
You have not an inkling
Because it's all you knew
Dragging everyone down with you
Oh so dramatic, prone to crying
Worked well at combining

Feel free to weep
Your tears prove dry
All you do is a lie
he loves me, he loves me not
have you ever looked at a rose petal?
the veins, when you peel it
there is skin
it's really quite strong
he loves me
lest i forget his ways
all the beautiful times
when he watched me cry
he loves me not
that's more like it
how could someone call it love
when it's so selfish
when it can tear away at someone
so they have lost themselves
he loves me, he loves me not
whatever the case
it doesn't matter
i'm gone
you pick a rose
a new one grows
to replace it

You:
When I first met you,
you were depressed.
Issues suppressed,
Fighting yourself
and everyone else.
I proved to be
a source of hope.
Through all your drama
I helped you cope.
I was new to love,
but I did my best.
Now the results are in
from our test.
Me:
when you met me
i was thriving in the sun
life wasn't easy
but it sure was fun
i saw your soul
and cried with glee
i knew what to do
to make you happy
i sacrificed myself
in every single way
and after all that's gone
alone i lay
you're getting help, i gave you protection
for your heart to grow, you now have direction
i didn't intend to be your savior
but obviously i did you a huge favor
now as for me, well anyone can see
i lost myself, what else can i be?
i'm smarter, wiser, i know i've grown
but you've given me a sadness i've never known
it's obvious, painful, and i can't go back
but where my soul was once full
there now is a crack

Jaded green born to grow
A beautiful girl lost her glow
When the past has allowed us to be
Where those people ever truly happy?
Tired words resurrected to feel
Some sort of closure allowing to heal
What is a serpent but a lovely soul?
What is his pain but a tireless pull?
Reflect the dainty attempt to save
She may be stupid, but she is brave
Take from your pocket an old rose petal
Her mistaken steps deserve no medal
Is there hope in hats, fingers and shoes?
Can she really come to terms with this bruise?
Cancerous words decay but must stay
Understand the tears, know where you lay
