Legitimacy & Untruthfulness

Concrete lies And watered eyes Trying to block out What’s in the mind. A shattered face Now stands Were so much beauty use to show Grow You hidden wonder. Why don’t you sing? Your eyes are saying you want to Let your voice be heard. Then can you stop running or slowdown? No one can catch you And saving is what you need. Scream Someone has to be listening Right? Maybe someone is paying attention Even though you are a weed Walked over and stepped on But always coming back. Stop searching the sky No one is answering your questions. You walking contradiction Untold truth. Why is the face in the mirror Ugly? wasn’t it once innocent? Smile without a tear You cant can you? Why is there so much rage Built up inside you? Learn to forgive those Who abandoned you. So much anger for a little someone Why don’t you want to feel? You grieving soul Your not numb anymore isn’t that what you wanted? You got what you asked for You can feel again. Search inside Reach deep within Cant your see what your looking for? You already know its right before your eyes. One word Carved into your body You hurting lover.
