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
