if you take off your armour
if you lay your weapons down
if you show me your vulnerability
i will retreat
i will do the same

i'm finding my way back to you
step by tentative step
one day we'll look back at this
with no more regret
i'm finding my way back to you
step by loving step

Why can't I forget you?
I hate this foolishness
Self Respect has flown away
Dignity can't look at me
Vulnerability appears to have gotten out of hand
I can't understand why
I can't forget you

her hair was covering
the most flawless parts of her face
her beautiful mouth
was shouting the most ugliest words
the stares from the spectators were devastatingly blank
vapid, like only strangers posses
her body was twisted and contorted
her voice was raw and distorted
blame was being thrown as naturally unproductive
as the most troublesome delinquent
all the while ignoring the human
inside the woman on the pavement
her hair was covering
the most flawless parts of her face
in the morning she will not remember this mistake
all she will have is the labels and little bruises of shame
she will see the beautiful parts of herself
and have nobody to share them with
she will realise her only freedom is inside silence
she will close her mouth and fade away
the conclusion of a woman gone insane

i took a trip to heaven once
just to see the view
i got ****** into the tragic lie of decency
now im on a church team
trying to claw my way out of this hell
