Painless

Do you ever feel weak, but gutsy all at the same time. 
It feels wrong but right,
Sudden and sweet in ways you can't explain
Crying won't help and you almost don't want to 
When you realize
This isn't how I want it to be 
Move with the water not wash up on shore like the salty tide 
Be free and alive
Make it so it doesn't hurt
Make it so you can look at yourself 
Want to be the person you see
Want to look at the world through
Shades you were only meant to see through
