excuses.poisons.death.

By cut dagger cut

her memories
in pieces,in pieces of pain
her feeling
are burning,burning from shame
because she can't speak to anyone of this

in this situation
there's no control
excuses and poison to blame
i asked you nicely not to
but did you listen? no, not you

about eight or nine
you thought you'd feel fine
i hoped you'd be alright
i guess we were both wrong

my memories
in pieces,in pieces of pain
my feelings
shot down again
i guess you can always count on
promises not being kept

nursing the pain
shot down again

it keeps raining on me
i swore i tasted the blood on my tongue
i could've sworn that my veins were drained

suicide

i kissed a razorblade
fell in love with a gun
put my trust into a chamber
and was brought a bullet for my lung
i could've sworn i died

and i can never write enough of this..
