The Reality of It [Part 2]

I used to feel a sharp pain, when I saw your skin

My heart would ache with longing, to know what you did

I must say I'm disappointed, I thought you were better than this.

 

But apparently not

Your blood doesn't clot

Kitty scratches

A bomb hatches.

 

Are you really

being honest with me?

I don't think so

I would know.

 

I want to show you

what a real scar is

It's happening too soon.

 

You call that a cut?

Looks like a drawing.

You say you are sad?

Wake up and realize you are doing this.

 

It is your choice, to be happy or not.

What you decide is what you have to live with for the rest of your life.

If you want attention, this isn't the right way to get it.

 

Empathy wasn't meant for people like you.

You hurt others by pretending to hurt yourself.

Flaunting it to get people to notice.

Well, I've seen better than you.

 

Let me take you to someone you wouldn't think

Someone who has the problems you wish for.

But what is so great about it?

They hide, you show. They cry, you plan for tomorrow.

This isn't all just a big show.

 

Their parting of lips form a smile which they mask their pain as happiness.

No one ever knows who they are.

Because you don't see.

All I see is you.

It makes me sick when you make fun of it.

Because I've lost too many.
