Unopened Letter
And dear love
This is the fifth time that I've written you today
Or maybe the sixth, after three they tend to all start to blend together
Regardless of the number, the meaning still remains The ink that I've split onto this sheet is stained with the guilt you carried From the first week of knowing you
Even those first few words that you uttered out of that entrancing mouth of yours I took too far to heart
But the realization that they had steadily become rotten was far more than withstandable No... Convincing myself that what I took for real was just a twisted illusion
And that your words could be held with some sense of meaning…
Was far easier to withstand You see, I just wanted to act like I had a perfect life, like we were perfect, like nothing else in the world could be anymore perfect
But I guess I'll never get that
And maybe it was my illusion of perfection Or how that word was engraved in my brain every time you'd look at me with that relentless stare That haunting, creeping stare that I so loathed
But I didn't loathe it enough to not let it ensnare me Though I knew of the branches' thorns I let it wrap itself around me
Drawing blood with every inch that it covered With every limb that it captured and claimed its own
I let it creep and crawl its way around me Until I had nothing left to call my own Which made the cutting of the branches that much harder
Pieces of me trapped between the thorns Tearing apart and leaving the hollow being that I like to call a body
Cause that's all that was left It's like the lights were on and the water was running But I couldn't have been any further gone
Scared, scraped, and just remnants of what I once was Left to rot and wither as the branches claimed what they thought rightfully there's Moving on to the next with no less sympathy than the last
For months I tried to hate, tried to resent, tried to forget もっと沢山の歌詞は ※ Mojim.com But I end up laughing instead
I know that you're the last person I should want to see, but it's just not that way to me Because every time I look at the scars you left covering the undersides of my arms
I only see the beauty that once was I only see the times we enjoyed, and not the times that we regret The times you left me star struck and teary eyed and not broken and alone
Please God I just wish you had poured meaning into the word we call 'love' Made it more than a word, at least that's how it was to me
Even after I've picked out every last thorn that's dug itself neck deep into my skin I can't toss them into the flames like every photo from when I once knew you Because the pain it reminds me
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Thought you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Though you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Thought you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Thought you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Thought you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I wish I'd known what you had wanted Wanted all along Thought you wanted me, my heart on my sleeve I had thought wrong
I Wish I knew.
