Broken and.. Ah, just broken..

By Starshine

The wounds on my skin
has turned into small white lines
One for every sorrow
and for each forgotten bloodstain



Although it´s so far away now
I hear his thoughts quietly anyway
Always a judge and an executioner
the pain I could never understand



And now I´m stuck in your breath
tearing you apart with my broken soul
But you don´t see the fake and the mean me
you helplessly try to understand what I can´t



I have scars that still is burning
and a demon inside of me
My words tangles your tongue
in an emptiness I can´t help



I´m trying to kill the past
I tear the memories apart
But how can I forgive all the pain
when I no longer trust my own sense



When you hold me too tight
it´s my freedom you steal
If you rip the wings of a bird
you kill its soul



What do you want me to say
for us, we gain nothing
Maybe it´s me who can´t be saved
but I will never let go, ever



So don´t hurt me when I´m falling to the floor
it´s only you who can see when I´m vulnerable
Don´t tear my wings apart,
let me fly. I´ll stay, always



I´m yours to lose
I could have sold my soul years ago
I could have smashed it against the asphalt
if only I had found it



I am now unarmed
courage is the only way to go
When your lungs are my air
honey, my lips are pretty blue
