Read my mind For all the right words I can’t seem to find To tell you how I feel inside. Know my thoughts For they seem to be caught And to get them out I have fought. Gaze into my eyes And look past the disguise. All the walls and all the lies. Feel my pain So you can know the strain And the amount of life that it drains. Touch the scars That I put on my arms And how I wished to hide behind the stars. See my tears That reveal my fears Of losing everything I hold dear. Look at my soul Blackened like coal And, like my heart, has a bleeding hole. I’ve shown you me. All there is to see, And now you hold the key To give me hope And help me cope. Give me the life for which I *****. Hold me close And give me a dose Of the love that I needed most.
