Blood

Wonder why my skin burns
whisky only solves so many problems
Some will believe I am falling apart
when I am just close to understanding

Why I must fall apart every damn time
when I can bleed just the same
Scars mean nothing to you
if you can commit to such ignorance

Why can't you understand how I feel?
I know I wasn't kind in the past
but what of the pain we've inflicted upon ourselves?
Is it worth the scar tissue?

Blood on the flesh
Blood on the memoria
Is this what we were born to be?
Pathetic lives that live to die
is this why I cannot cry?

Some will believe I am falling apart
when I am just close to understanding -- these two lines spoke volumes to me.

Sometimes we need to hit the bottom to know which direction to go. If we're just "floating" we don't know which way is up and which is down. Well done, my friend. Quite nice.
