Talk is Cheap
"I will follow you into the dark"
Where are you when I'm screaming into the void
Beating fists against the ground
"I hate you, I hate you, I hate you"
A slogan embedded in my bones
Leaking into my eyes and my skin
I don't even know who I hate anymore
Where are you when my vicious cycle comes to a screeching halt
When my demons are all that I have to my name
Cold truths hovering over me like dark clouds
Our childish promises and teenage angst down trodden
Converse footsteps overlaid with the dirt of years gone by
The dust is blowing and the tables are turning
My hearts turned to rubble
And my eyes run like a river
You played medicine woman to me
Till your well ran dry
Now I'm a madwoman raving
Drinking her thirst from the sky
Where are you when I'm screaming into the void
Beating fists against the ground
"I hate you, I hate you, I hate you"
A slogan embedded in my bones
Leaking into my eyes and my skin
I don't even know who I hate anymore
Where are you when my vicious cycle comes to a screeching halt
When my demons are all that I have to my name
Cold truths hovering over me like dark clouds
Our childish promises and teenage angst down trodden
Converse footsteps overlaid with the dirt of years gone by
The dust is blowing and the tables are turning
My hearts turned to rubble
And my eyes run like a river
You played medicine woman to me
Till your well ran dry
Now I'm a madwoman raving
Drinking her thirst from the sky

Sometimes talk is cheap, it also depends on what you did. We have all darkness inside that we need to fight to get back into the light. Keep on writing.
