Open wounds
We tried so hard to stay afloat
Dodging the bullets that came spinning at our heads.
We tried to ignore the battle scars
That traced down the backs of our spine.
That final month I couldn't walk
I had nothing but open wounds.
I tried so hard to talk them out
You tried so hard to listen.
But words didn't come, instead there were daggers
I dragged you down one last time.
Now my name means nothing
For I left nothing but open wounds.
We're both bleeding.
But now we bleed alone.
