The Pen Is Mightier

Hidden in your lies is the truth uncovered From the deepest wound Left an awful scar here I fought in hell To save one's dignity I roared your name Like steel Cutting cold ice Deep enough To feel pain Beautiful turns ugly sour the skin almost creeps Falling a fine line unreal To cut at the razor's edge The face cuts truth In the deepest wound cold hard lies open cuts Did I ever know you The blackest heart A complete stranger Horrid ugly deceiver in what you done no respect shown Cold emotionless heart Cutting to the bone to look crazy upset over nothing Almost possessed Like shut down empty feelings Open the eyes An obstacle between us has grown like hitting an iceberg something is dreadfully wrong Then you drew the sword Shot me down Buried without closure the bitter end Coldest cut frosted Scarred deep within The razor edge Straight through the centre Just like a knife in searing pain The finest cut The tongue like a paper cut Drawn with the pen can cut deeper than any wound upon the sword
