No One Will Know
good morning
we have been here before
dawn arrives slow, boring
the knife we ignore
from dusk we’ve dreamed of the slow slice
the pain that covers the real
long sleeves is the price
you don’t know what we feel
child abuse
fear creeps deep
no one will hurt us but the noose
deep 6 big sleep
the sun is no fun
when your dreams scream
and your last thought is the sound of a gun
the message so serene
you don’t know what we feel
when your thoughts of driving into a big rig
mangles flesh and steel
as it burst into flames from your cig
the thoughts come in a blink of an eye
as we sit on the couch with the remote
all the ways we want to die
tomorrows dawn will be rewrote
