Lost Soul May 2019
Let me take your pain
I can carry the burden
Your mental health was never a game
I can't sit by
and hear you hurt yourself again
While my heart dies a little more inside
I'm already broken so whats a little more
Use my body as a canvas
Decorate me like you do to yourself
Behind the closed door
Do it me but leave yourself
Carve maps on my skin
Make a line from your state to mine
Let the blood make a pact
that we will never be apart
As the red trails clot
And tears stream my face
I will cry for every permanent tally mark
That reminds you how you got to this place
I cant take it anymore
If i cant help you
then what am i good for ?
So put your burdens all on me
Your too young for this
I want you to feel
what its like to finally be free
While you sleep, I'll hold you tight
I will stay up all night and protect you
Sleep little one...
Your nightly demons this time I'll fight
I will take it all
No matter the hurt
No matter the pain
I cant watch you fall
Lost Soul Apr 2019
When the day is right
I've breathed my last breath
let the birds still sing
the sun shine bright
When you find me, with my heart beating no more
stay with my cold body
let your tears fill the marks
that were inflicted behind closed doors
Please close my eyes
they have seen enough
destruction, disappointment, and lies
Take my hands and cover my heart
protect what little is left
so no one can rip it apart
As you brush the hair out of my face
don't ever think u were the one who put me in this place
When you gather to remember me
don't cry...
even though I'm six feet under
just know I'm finally free
