While the World Passes

Back to the old ways,
I'm watching the world pass,
And I'm just falling back,
I don't have the motivation or the strength to change,
I fall back back to being alone,
It's easier to breathe,
I'll get out hit it and pass it,
But man I gotta Surpass it,
How do I move through this?
Watching this world pass,
Watching this burning grass,
And I'm just flailing to get a grip,
I need control but there is no hope, 
I need someone to help,
I'm alone,
Watching the world pass,
I've jaded myself,
I fight my fears,
Then I swallow my tears,
I won't let them see,
I'm not going to hurt again,
I'll walk on the egde but I'm not going in,
I'm not a user,
I don't just say words I mean them,
I say them with crushing blows,
Because what I say is what I feel,
Take my words to heart they will crush you,
You'll never get me to fall again,
I'll just sit back and watch the world pass.

No Answers

I walk where I dare not pass, 
I stay where I am not welcome,
I talk to those who do not talk back,
I look where I cannot find,
I jump into depths too deep,
I ask where there is no answer,
I stay who I am to be hated,
When I am asked why I am not open,
It's because of the pain it brings me,
When I am asked why I am so mean,
It's because I have never been given kindness,
When you see me you see dark,
When I see me I see distrust,
Why do I try to only get hurt again,
Who I am to who you are,
I asked to be hurt,
You gave me what I asked for.

Show

I'll never show,
I'll never show the pain again,
Those tears you saw,
Will never be opened again,
I'll stand braced at the floodgates,
I'll never show even on my darkest days,
I'll never tell you that you meant that you mean anything to me,
I'll be dead before I open up again,
These tears show my fears,
These tears show my weaknesses/inabilities,
I'll stand ready to die then to cry,
So stand back while I drive this razor through this flesh,
This forearm has seen bloody lines,
I'll show you blood before tears,
I'm no man, 
I'm a boy,
I give up and run away,
I'll take my stand and fight for this,
I give in to my demons and scream for freedom/peace,
No one will listen,
I'll die before I ever let these tears go.
