Something Dire - ThouShaltNot

I though I’d gotten over this

Day after day after a hundred years

What good is it now?

I tremble to contain

Everything promised and never received

Everyone said that they wouldn’t leave

Stop me if I let my tongue spew fire

Kill me if you cannot reach me

Stop me if I’m doing something dire

Kill me if you cannot teach me

I thought I would endure it all

I cannot see what i had wanted then

What have I done?

The stains of yesterday

All of the time I was lying down

Backwards and forwards and bleeding sound

But I’ll stay again

I can wait some more

I can stay right here for what’s in store

I can hold my own

Glowing like a rose

I will stay right here until you go
