The thorns burn holes into my fingers
As I pick up the rose you left me.
As the blood comes, so do the tears.
I don't know up from down.
I don't know left from right.
I want to be alone
I need me time.
I need to get away from all the thoughts
The feelings I hide deep inside.
All of the pain is shining through.
I can't think, can't breathe.
I can't do anything right now.
The pain is going deeper,
Just like the thorns.
I can't feel anything anymore.
I can't breathe when you try to shelter me
From everything I try to do.
The blood is lying in a pool around my feet.
The thorns are penetrating into my soul.
I can't look at you much longer,
My eyes are growing weary.
My breath is getting short.
I'm falling into a pool of darkness.
The darkness is pressing into me.
You can't protect me from everything.
Hell is gaping for you,
The devil is waiting.
You have one foot in already.
The fire pent up in my heart
Struggles to break free.
The flames gather and flash about you.
Only to be broken down again,
For you are friends with the devil.
I am dead to you.
Just as you are dead to me.
