Riot
I've got a bad case of mistreated
i don’t know what they need me to say
i won’t stop bleeding till this war has gone away
this is my cause
this is your loss
i’m wounded
in every palace i pay for with favors
i’m rich
i’m listed as a talent
but is it only me that dies for wounds
that define sanity?
tell me a story
that doesn't start
and end
with a beating
I'm afraid I cannot explain myself well
From the hole in my face
From which the words fell
So I write them all down
Every smile to every frown
For when I try to speak
I barely make a sound.
You don't have to be what you are
The hurt can go
Leaving a beautiful scar
