Graveside Where I Hide

Graveside Where I Hide

A Poem by Travis Prino

I turn you on, I turn you off

I keep you breathing with a cough

make a wish upon a star

hear the endless beating of my heart

nothing ventured, nothing gained

I broke your will and you feel chained

bound and tied up on the floor

wrestling demons once more


never realized what she was worth

never appreciated what she gave

now I must live without it

now I must think about it

or so they say


I knock you down, I pick you up

I save your blood inside a cup

give it to you when you need

I love to sit and watch you bleed

pleasure flowing through my veins

when I see that you're in pain

will still broken in my hands

I'm the one you call your man


never realized what she was worth

never appreciated what she gave

now I must live without it

now I must think about it

or so they say


I love you dearly, I hate you

sick of the s**t you put me through

manipulation at it's best

you won't pass this final test

you said you loved me but you lied

I'm the reason that you died

love so strong it was blind with fear

memories of blood, sweat, and tears


never realized what she was worth

never appreciated what she gave

now I must live without it

now I must think about it

or so they say


now I live without it

but I don't think about it

as she lies in her grave.

About
Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
