I ran from you all my life. I’ve had problems, But that doesn’t make it right.
In my house, You don’t ask questions. The whispers from mom and dad Signal you to a hiding place. In my house,
You’re bleeding down my legs, Tangling me up in your fingers. I want to run my nails down your b… And sigh in your ear.
A tree fell in the park last night… I didn’t hear it go. The innards smelled of peppermint, And I felt the crumbling dirt Turn into ash in my hand.
I’m falling apart beneath my smile… I grapple blindly for a rope To save myself from rising waters. I come up, lungs full of despair, And my parents cover my mouth

I don’t understand. I don’t understand the cruelty The darkness The fear This choking feeling.
You’re young. You’ll feel better. You’ll get better Eventually. So much time to feel better.
Without you, I feel the pain. The rain seems cold now. Thunder is only evil, And the sky is bare and pale.
