Wounds - Darke Complex

Try to conceal what I feel inside

But time to time it escapes

My lips are torn from the teeth they hide

So I can smile again

Bite down and force feed some sweeter lies

That I can swallow instead

My wounds just eat away at me

But you won’t care until they bleed

The truth is too complicated

To be medicated

I’ll hold on until I find relief

There’s not much more torment I can take

This skin grows weary and thin

And when I see it begin to break

I’ll keep it buried within

You left me broken and hoping

This was over when you said so

But the truth is exposed and

Now I know I need to let go

Broken and hoping

This was over when you said so

And I tried not to show it

But it made its way up my throat

My wounds just eat away at me

But you won’t care until they bleed

The truth is too complicated

To be medicated

I’ll hold on until I find relief

Until I find relief
