can I pull you with me
deeper down to see
all the pain you've awoken
these feelings inside me
building up my anger
the sick knot in my heart
churning in my stomach
will it ever stop
twisted around your finger
hating how I feel
begging to be ripped from
this painful grinding wheel
maybe I still love you
in a darker shade of gray
never learn to hate you
what painful words to say
