you know it all better before you said it
twisted tongue laced with honey to sweeten the hurt
your face pulls the perfect clown moment
your eyes moves vertigo without remorse
please let it all out, don’t hold any back

the subtle jab in those utterances you’ve made
resentment and anger as they flow out unhindered
those lips that once said “I love you”
has now become a sharp edged sword
swung emotionless incinerating damages

I’m battered already when you pulled attitude
these acts of yours never started in a day
it has continually flowed up like stream
and I’ve terribly seen the end before it began
already sealed my heart for this hurt now

please don’t hold it back
just say the words and I will disappear into the wilderness
it is a terrible fate I must accept before I break
I sure know time heals all wound unnoticed
but these scars I will forever carry on in my hearts
