Drink The Water

It's like watching a rose just wither away. When beauty crumbles and decays. It's like having a voice, with no chance to speak. It's something that you hold, and hold to keep. Fall to my knees, God I beg you please, Show me just a little mercy. Help me, help me! I'm doing all I can. Pretend I'm unaffected, but their pain became my burden. Swear this isn't what I wanted, God, this house is haunted, The way that this could be, if things would remedy, And after all of this we've been through, I wish that we could switch shoes, This life ain't fair for us all. My ears resound, with the sound of broken dreams, I had where you would breathe, exist eternally, Tell them to leave, You're coming home with me. Remove that damn IV, I wish my words could cure illness. It's like running a race with no legs or, Swimming a lap with no arms, The door may have slammed in my face but, The windows will heal my scars
