If every word you utter Comes with a scratch on my skin, Then I must be skinless by now. But I'd rather drown in the water Or hit myself with a tin, Than to wound myself with your howl. If the more you raise your tone, The more I become deaf, Then please scream your all. For I'd rather feel alone; Never to hear myself, Than to hear your call. If only there is a way To stop the way I feel, I wouldn't be writing this; Nor would I even say, And nor would I even feel That I need to write this.
