All you can do is cover me in lies
With tomorrow's  tears dripping from my bones
You Skin me and hang me to dry

When you're done with me
You leave me alone
As I fade
into the smoke I made
When I bunt myself with the cigarette
You lit for me

The aching
The burning
The pain so unbearable
I think I just might cut it out
Leave it laying there
Still beating
Still whistling with life
Just so I might forget
That infection you left behind
That knawed through the flesh
Crawled up the bone
Only to live incurable
In the memories
That never quit left my grasp

The ones That always pop up when i least expect
Waving their hand
Screaming my name
The second they remember
That their presence can ruin my day

Take my breath away
And make me never want it
back

scraping, scratching, slinking
into my soul.
all the words surround my opinion.
only the whispers of others
and my ****** hand print
stay behind.
as i find my way
out of the forest
of reaching fingers
and the storm of forced change.
