When you get asked if you've slept this week When the best hours of rest come after the fights, the arguments, the lonely nights when a three hour nap lets you make it for days and all you can give is a smile and a laugh making it all seem cool but you know in your mind that each little fight leaves a gouge in the soul hurts its friendly facade the nicks and the scrapes and the gouges add up a flawless soul more damned than you know sits all alone in the dark with a pen and some prose even with rest, the story's the same you treasure the time alone in the dreams the peace that can come when time is your friend the gouges have been filled in reminder of who you once were before the fights and the damage grew dreams are just that a quiet escape a safe place to go if only for minutes or hours to feel... like you're not really you. |
