make it out alive

make it out alive

A Poem by shane
"

kind of about an old "friend" that i didn't realize wasn't a friend for a long time

"

 

The words that they told me

Well you could have fooled me

You could have said it was all a lie

While my heart stayed working my spirit was broken

Why try when I know I’ll never make it

But I got a secret

That’s going to help beat it

YOU’RE ALL THE SAME

YOU FIND YOUR JOY IN PAIN

 


(chorus:) 

Too late, too late open eyes see through your lies

You tried to keep me here to die

But I’m getting out alive; just try to hold me down.

Too late, too late, I won't bother placing blame

I’ve wasted too much time so far

Nothings will stop me leaving now.

 

The sunlight is shining; it's blinding my eyes

Bouncing off the silver showing from all of the knives

In the backs of everyone

Who ever trusted you?

I’m no different but my wound is closing

How does it feel to be out of targets?

You set fire to all of your friends

Are you ready to be alone in the ashes?

YOUR STILL THE SAME

YOU WILL NEVER CHANGE

 

 

Too late, too late,

Everyone can see straight through you

We won’t give you a chance again

We wont give you our backs again

Too fake, two faced

I should have seen it before now

All the times I defended you.

You chewed me up and spat me out.

 

 

Too late, too late,

Everyone can see straight through you

We won’t give you a chance again

We wont give you our backs again

Too fake, two faced

You can stay here all alone

Now that we’ve learned

We’re moving on

we won't give you our backs again too fake, two faYou can stay here all alone

Now that we've learned

We’re moving on

CAN YOU FEEL THE BURN?

pshhh this isn't rushed at all vv it's raw emotion being spit out - there's no pace set for such a thing to be considered steady, or slow, or..."rushed up" other than that, my only concern would be the minor grammar errors :/ i LOVE that you addressed the most important points in red because they put serious emphasis on them that otherwise would not have been there if they had been the same. anyways, i love this, lots :D thanks for the great read!
