Dredge This Wound
I've been down, helpless, still.
I come here once again, feelings lost,
Extinction of what used to be,
Dwelling keeps me from standing on my own.
Selfless dissection of emotion,
Emotion I have left inside dredge this wound,
Salt of tears, then I fade away,
Slips away and fades raising eyes to see you,
Anger is all I feel, missed your forgiveness,
Just a witness of my own demise, searching these pieces,
They cut me, you laugh as I bleed, swallow contradiction,
Just a victim of all I have inside this pain just deepens,
I can never let go, feel it numbing me, exist around you,
Everything I know, I've held myself down to,
Held myself down so that I will never fall,
All of this I feel I pour out for you, salvation,
In the release of all that I feel
