Truth

Sometimes my bleeding brings an answer Sometimes I will never have to grieve My mind is still formulating questions Whilst flames remember what I see Some things never have to hurt me Someone will never have to lie But then I remember why I whisper Locked inside my room, why can’t I die? Once more I paint another ending Once I remember what I am My lies can never let me smile But truth will never help me stand Sometimes I never had to hate you Sometimes I really think I tried My hate is still retaining distance But I’m cold and I still have to cry Somehow I recall an answer Someone stole it from my dreams But then I look into the mirror Locked inside my room, nothing but screams Once more I write another question Once I remember who I am The lies that spin another answer This truth is all I ever had
