No Offense

Your words they stand eternally, They’re words that cannot simply leave They sink into my memory Like stones set on misery Tried to make some good of them, Found it hard to call you a friend Your truth was so bold Time lost in their cold Why do we smile so easy For a photograph? Why can’t life just be Like a photograph? You say no offense No offense taken, No, no heart broken I’m strong, oh I’m stronger than the mouth that spoke No heart broken Do not awaken A soul that’s about to choke- Cause I will smile on... I can't be what you make of me I will smile on No offense taken, with me No offense taken, with me Ghosts are haunting all my fears Bursting at the gleam of tears Can’t you see I’ve lived by it? Made use of it, use of it? Oh, has it changed you around? No, don’t try to take it down The hurt is set in stone So let it sink alone Why do we smile so easy For a photograph? Why can’t life just be Like a photograph? No offense taken, No, no heart broken I’m strong, oh I’m stronger than the mouth that spoke No heart broken Do not awaken A soul that’s about to choke- I will smile on I won't be what you make of me I will smile on No offense taken with me No offense taken With me, With me, With me…
