Better Left

Better left unspoken, Are the words you have spoken. Better left unheard Are the sounds of drums From my heart you have stirred. Slicing the skin Like cuts of glass, We're the scornful whispers of your words Better left unspoken, better left unheard. Better left unknown Are the feelings in your heart Better to run, don't stop once you start For his heart is made of stone Better left without a trace No trail, no mark, not a single thing Why can't you see what's right in your face, Like the devil,, only true disaster he will bring. Better never to feel what isn't to be felt Setting your soul of fire, just to watch it melt. Better I know what I never knew Unspoken truth, without a sound, A love I lost, but I never really found. Better you know, for these words are true.
