BLEED

The bruises don’t show, but the pain is still unbearable.

Don’t even wanna face myself,

because it makes me fucking miserable.

Should I strive to be free or am I better off stuck inside my head?

Where no one sees and no one knows.

I think I’ve found a way out,

but I don’t know if I can drag myself away from this hysteria.

If you don’t heal what hurt you, you’ll bleed on those who never cut you.

I’m scared of change, but I’ve been stuck in a place

I don’t belong and I’ve been strong for far too long.

Wash away the tears and bite my tongue,

because the night will end and I must face the world.

Force a smile and make it believable.
