Old story New trust What you've seen of me Was just the crust Wipe away the grime Of my old life The icky part when I went through the motions Silently, like a mime But now I feel the need to Scream and shout I want to express, To let it all pour out I'm like a bomb Just waiting to explode Say the wrong thing Might send me into irrational mode In my faith I will stand Firm like a lighthouse on the ocean Knock me down, scrape me up And I'll bleed pure emotion I'm in an invisible army With me, myself, and I Tonight we're raiding imagination land So don't bother to stop by Sticks and stones will break my bones But words will hurt me more They say it's nothing, don't worry about it But I feel it in my core All these things, these words Describe how I exist Never normal, always a maddening mess My rant is over, with that you are dismissed
