[ my own blood ]

it wasn't really school bullies, that have torn me apart,

or a past lover who broke my heart,

but more so, my own blood*

who has caused this everflowing flood,

of pain, sadness, and madness in my mind

they think that because i'm still breathing, i'm doing just fine

when really,

im going to explode like a land mine

eventually.
