The Rod That Caused My Heart To Break
The rod you choose
The jokes you made
The insults you gave
Where only the bruise of my pass
The pain you inflicted
The tears you saw
The secrets you hid
Are the shadows that keeps knocking at my door
The fear you instilled
The lies you told
Are the demons that torments my soul
The cane you use to cause my wounds
Are the stains that are splash against your window pane
The scars I carry
The heart that is broken
Are the tale that I cannot bury
The life I live
The streets I walk
Are the burdens that the mind carry
The strain of it all
Make me want to fall
I think its time
I made that call.
