Bitter, bittersweet....

by Hope   Mar 6, 2018


Hatred, it burns in my silence,
what would you want?
dead to be alive....
cause-
I'd survive,
torture for every sin,
as....
it's all been me,
bittersweet
bittersweet
bittersweet
kill me so you're right-right beneath the eye of the storm:cold-cold war,
what would you want from me?
chase, chase me away,
pray, pray for the dark-
'cause...
it's just one night:
when...
you can have forever;
break-
when you can have nothing,
so...
you can have something,
dead so you can survive, survive on the inside?
because it's all you have, all that you've had? chase, chase, chase...
what would you want 'cause it's all I have, all that I've had?
dead to live another lie,
kill so you survive,
crash: crash and burn as the rain,
let the fire turn to the rain,
another promise to fade.
