Scars run deep,
but they heal so beautifully.
Natural tattoos of how blind we tend to be.
The scars in my chest
could pierce a bullet proof vest and leave me dead,
dead in the street at best.
Please carry me somewhere safe where my eyes fail to blink again.
Close them so I don't have to see my friends weeping,
they shouldn't sacrifice sleeping.
Put me in my coffin with a smile so I can be happy for once.
For what?
Where do I go from here?
I hear there's a place up there,
but I don't believe its true.
The answers are so beyond me,
maybe I want nothing.
Does there have to be
more than the people and sunshine around me?
Maybe I just want nothing.
Let's all just be happy.
For what?
