Hiding Your Thoughts Behind Your Eyes

by Punkfoot

You feel like a tattoo Not the burning into my skin effect, But the constant feeling of something that you can't actually feel being there I want to shave my head for the satisfaction of seeing my thoughts again Not through my eyes but my brain And I think if I didn't have hair id be less clouded The feeling of dried blood on my knuckles Has been the only constant thing in my life I pick and I pick and I pick I'm picking you out of my head now I'm so afraid of the future, yes But I'm more scared of my past so I'm running away I have been smoking again I haven't done that in awhile It helps when I need a feeling Just something between my lips The burning of my lungs will always be better than the burning of my heart I think I'm okay again Or maybe I'm just fooling around again I'm not sure where I'll be tomorrow But I'm moving on today
