Clawing, Scratching, Screaming

Clawing, scratching, screaming A heart's endless scheming Can you hear me? No! Can you feel me? No more! Do you see the pain drip from my eyes to the floor? Remember my taste? Oh what a waste. I can't un-remember anymore. Look to my hands, see their desire; Choking out words to quell their fire. Nails dig in and drag Breaking a cracker's crack! You never looked in only looked back. Jump, dance, run, fall I will some lifetime from now Smash this wall. Never again but that's not true. I'll live this, the longest death Every time I think of you.
