sticks and stones

a re-written peice

 Sticks and stones

So here is what you all seemed to want

The broken, cracked shell from your words

This is what you’ve created

Is it what he deserved?

Beaten up and put down,

The razor world is where he calls home

And off the pages off his life

Run the tears, the tears

 

And I’ve torn inside so many times

To see if I was built wrong

Nothing seems to be so different

I feel the same as you,

I bleed the same as you  

And I’ve torn inside so many times

Nothing seems wrong

I've torn inside so many times

Somehow it helps

 

Sticks and stones may break my bones

But your words may just kill me

The whispers behind my back

Hurt worse than the punches to the face

And I fell inside the dark place so many times

But I always get back out

No matter what I try

You always seem to drag me down

It just gets too much, sometimes

Back to the razor world,

The only place I feel at home

 

And I’ve torn inside so many times

To see if I was built wrong

Nothing seems to be so different

I feel the same as you,

I bleed the same as you  

And I’ve torn inside so many times

Nothing seems wrong

I've torn inside so many times

Somehow it helps

 

So here now you have the shell

And you won't even look upon him

Just wait till he rises, put him back down again

You see the broken shell

But it's not worth your gaze

When the blood has spilt

You'll convince your self

That your hands are clean

 

And I’ve torn inside again

Everything looks different

This will be the last time

For I know I’m not the same as you
