Denial

I’ll pretend that I can’t hear you Just to satisfy my mind Every word is another betrayal Every word is one more cry I’ll pretend that I can’t see you Just to bury every pain That every action is denial And every movement is in vain There’s nothing but intension Either good, bad or lost But in others eyes they seek to claim it And every moment has its cost I’ll pretend that I can’t touch you Just to run away once more Every heart that I have broken Is a lie that I’ve suffered before There’s nothing but confusion To take away our souls How can we care when we’re told it’s weakness? How can we love when love is a hole? I’ll pretend that I’m not here Just to hate life and its lies For every person that I want dead Is another time I die
