Cornered

I better run away, I should go and hide; The marks you left are deep; Lingering just below the surface where they know they will survive; You took my soul and whispered ‘You will never be the same again.’; Now the teeth you bared are lethal, but you taught me how to bite; Just what to do with undetectable poison, now I’m wearing your disguise; It’s not good to leave me unkept, soaring like a light speed comet; All desire and no direction now what am I to do with it? Look in the mirror taste the tip of rage, now I’ve stolen your perfect eyes; I better go away, You should go and hide the marks you left are deep, You taught me what to do when cornered, You left me invincible in a fight.
