"I See"

 I SEE

 Take apart the pieces that are left of me

 Scatter them around the room

 So plain to see

 You know never know how much is missing

 Until you put them back together

 Maybe they were never lost at all

 Pushed carefully aside

 Under the carpet

 In the folds of the sheets

 My past is easier to swallow

 If I sugar coat the pills

 A life of blacks and whites

 Seems better on the outside

 I prefer to dream in colour

 To know the true taste of blood

 To feel the true sting of a love

 How easily we give hate

 And hoard our love

 Make it untouchable

 It makes no sense

 We choose to make ourselves suffer

 Throw the book away

 Before the end

 No “happily ever after”

 Greed and suffering instead

 Attack

 Ask questions later

 Abuse

 Ignore ones true nature

 Watch out! Your compassion is showing

 Cover it up

 Before anyone notices

 Conform

 Don’t stand out

 Your opinion only matters

 If you say what you are told

 Bite the hand that feeds

 If it threatens you with starvation

 Run

 Before it eats you alive

 Our freedom is all we have

 It is dear to me
