Whispers from a Fragile Mind

Are you in love with my fragile sanity

Or is it just a toy you play with

When you’re so very bored?

Does it entertain you to hear my screams

From the depths of your dungeon?

I see you watching me fight my chains

And you’ll throw me wilted roses

And blow me kisses while I cry.

But still…

I polish your shoes before you walk on me

And when you break my ribs I blame them

For not being strong enough to hold you up.

I hear them crack and I shriek like I’m dying

But you don’t like the noise so I sob,

So very silently, so very silently

And I rock back and forth until I’m insane

And in that moment of desperation

I cut my skin open and offer you my blood

But you reject me and tell me I’m damaged

So, I’m falling and I’m falling and I’m…

I’m nothing, I’m nothing, I’m nothing

Now that you’re gone.
