Resection

Now life is full of so many simple crutches
They help me walk, they help me sleep, they help me suffer
The love was never there and I just didn't see it
Weapons take on so many painful attachments
The faces change but they all tell the same damn story
The love was never there and I just didn't see it
The love was never there, now I don't think I even care
I've built this wall around my heart to shut you out
I've played my part in this game that I thought was real
In this pain that I now feel And if I ever fall again, will I just turn it to the wind
Or let it fly away with pain Or let it fester into the same
A small dark place inside my mind will keep me safe and far behind
Where you can never hurt me again
The way you did and nothing can ever erase.
I pull this glass out of my skin
The 'wish I had's replace my sins I release the lies but not the disdain
And nothing can ever wash this away.
A small quiet place where I can hide
A small quiet place where I can hide
Where you can never hurt me again.
