Adrienne

Everytime I think about your face
I think about your pain
The pain I wish I could prevent
I can't see it, but I feel it every day
And everytime I hear your voice
My heart aches
Oh God, please help her! 
As she sits alone
A product of a broken home
She cries tears that I wish I could dry
She falls to her knees
Embedded in the floor 
I know I'm not there to hold you
My heart hurts 
I want to save you 
I'm sick of knowing that you are being devoured
By the enemies that want you to push up flowers
They're just cowards
I wish I were there 
What the Hell am I still doing here
God I can't believe what I'm hearing! 
Her tears and blood hit the floor
I don't want to believe this anymore
I look in the mirror and I have no one to blame but myself
