Aggravating ways; selfish means So beguiling that childish fiend A ****** war, no one sees Evil villian from far beneath Manufacturing wounds, ripping flesh Just to prove who's the best A soul swimming in a crimson pool Controling the body; taking rule A calming anidote, the music plays Claiming no one's perfect, ha! so cliche Searching for the lost soul under your bed, There's no monsters, so our parents said Some find monsters in their mirror Watching there makeup slowly smear Others find them in their surpressed memories The slight releif released by their screams Maybe it's been quite a while Since you've seen her beautiful smile Maybe a few years have passed Before someone wondered, before they asked But under his sleeves lie his scars They give proof of his pain, beautiful is what they are Both she and him are self conscious about their weight Both of them live in fear, live in hate Maybe some haven't seen a mosnter inside their closet But felt demons demolishing what's left It'll fumbles around inside their chest Some people you just wouldn't expect Because maybe their wrists have already been checked But did you ever think maybe her demons are smarter than you Have you ever felt there presence, then you'd know they're cruel And what if he were to drag a blade across his wrists Or maybe his thighs, he only does it to know he exists As her barriers build higher, and cloud up her eyes The wounds get deeper, the blood flowing onto her thighs How do you expect flames to bring him pain When he's living in hell, a blazing shame Throughout the day, they'll hide the pain away It'll seem like everytings fine, like it's okay Don't be swindled, don't be be a fool One day you might meet this monster too

My bestfriend's wish was for me to always write, no matter what, he was taken from me, and I don't know whether he's okay or not, but still I must go on, not for myself, but for him, there's days I want to crawl in a ball and die, still I write. I have to, it's the only way I can still feel him here, is through words
perfectly-flawed
