the mask we hide behind

No stranger you see
Such a danger to me
Things are not as they seem
As you listen to me
 
Molested and broken from so long ago
Scars you can't hide
Tucked deep from inside
They left you with nothing
If nothing is pain
Within you they linger
Till they lay you away
 
A painful reminder, when you look in my eyes
Realize your disguise much better than mine
A joy to suffer it
Dirty water as dark as shit  
A beautiful place to cover it
 
Bleed you and bite you
Cause I know this excites you
Choking delights you
When I'm done you'll say
Fuck you....with a smile
 
Did you violate me
Or the other way round
Slow me down and my root will set
Let me grow deep inside you
Your ground firm and wet
 
How many stars are in the sky
How many mothers sing lulliby
How many blades of grass are on the ground
How many times has the earth been spinning round
How long has time been going
How many times has someone passed without knowing
How many secrets have been told
How many dreams have been sold
How many what ifs have been thought
How many lies have you bought
 
No stranger you see  
So familiar to me
