The affluence of emotional defense

By silentninja

It's cold
It hurts
It pains me to watch the world go by

I'm empty
I cant dare say another word
A blanket gaze hides my porcelain eyes
As I retreat within myself

I'll come out
I will comeout
I promise

When they have all fucked off
Thanks for helping,
Thanks for being there
Thanks for absolutely nothing

Your Cold
You hurt
It pains you to watch me cry

So I hide behind this brick wall
I'm tired of running
I'm tired of being
I'm tired of starring
In your little puppet show

Please have some mercy
kill my nerves
rip out my feelings
destroy my emotions

Then for your audience I'll Smile.....
