Hurt

Dusted pavements where I once walked and played Are now chalked outlines of where I now lay A place of happiness in my heart it stained Until hurt reached in and bleached it away Sun shine was never too far from me But rain storms is now all I see I once believed I had a heart and soul Now after this life I have no idea where I'll go For this hurt is buried deep inside my veins Even after a injection of life I still feel the same This pavement had many bumpy roads But I have no idea how much longer I can carry this load Now I stand toe to toe With the man in the mirror all alone Trying to figure out where my happiness was before Hurt whispered to me it's mysterious allure And took me down a road of misery and despair While sitting in a electric chair Hurt is becoming to accustomed for me Now it even haunts my dreams Love and happiness was something I thought I knew But all signs point to that not being true Maybe it's good I don't have a seed So this hurt doesn't leak into thee I walked back to the pavement I once played To shed a tear for being so ashamed Allowing a part of my life to be erased And even if I moved I'll still be the one to blame For this hurt will remain the same.
