I knew you
you knew me
but I don't want to know the dark things
the dark things are the things that hurt
the hurt that continues are from the dark within you
within you I am here
here to support the pain you feel
you feel what I feel and I knew that pain
because we once shared that pain
that pain that has stained our hearts
our hearts are a bleached black shirt
a black shirt that you're supposed to throw away
please throw away my black shirt
because I already threw away yours
