him

another wound

that won't stop bleeding

time for more pain

and no receeding

another doctor

another gown

it won't be different

this time around

your eyes were once

like morning glorys

bright before dawn

with ultold stories

because everythings gone

youve parted ways

with logic and sense

for life's just a daze

another wrist band

and another bed

it still wont fix

your fucked up head

they take your shoes

and everything you own

tell you there's hope

but you've always known

that it's all a lie

this is all so fake

because nothing ever give

since you cannot take

you'll take your pills

and paint a smile

then they'll open the doors

in a little while

to the same old hell

the same old streets

nothing to abandone

no retreats

please dont go back there

don't die again

because there is something different

that you didn't have then

dont break his heart

and dont break yours

and dont you dare

close the open doors

i know its heavy

i know its hot

i know youre dying

but it's all you got

drenched in sweat

but someone loves you

so just hold on

no matter what you do

because there is no treatment

ssri or therapy

that will give you the love

he lets you see

so even if the rope's breaking

hold onto the strings

even if your voice dies

scream until it sings

because without him

you would never get better

so forget what's broken

and be whole together
