being held back
By Eric •
"BEING HELD BACK"
EVEN THOUGH I CAN HEAR
THE SCREAMING OF EVERYONE AROUND ME
I DON'T CARE
I CAN SEE YOU
STANDING THERE NOT CAREING
I CAN FEEL THE BLOOD FLOWING
FROM THE CUTS THAT COVER MY BODY
I DID MY BEST TO COME ALL THIS WAY
TO SEE YOU
AND I END UP LIKE THIS
BEING CARRIED AWAY BY THE MEDICS
AS YOU TURN YOUR BACK
I WONDER IF YOU EVEN KNEW IT WAS ME
OR IF YOU THOUGHT IT WAS
JUST ANOTHER WRECK
I TRY TO SCREAM FOR YOU
BUT THEY COVER MY MOUTH AND TUCK
ME UNDER THE SHEETS
I TRY TO RAISE MY HANDS TO POINT BUT
THEY HOLD ME DOWN
FINALLY THE MEDICINES BEGIN TO WORK
MY VISION GOES BLURRY AND FADES
I FEEL NOTHING AS I DID BEFORE
I SAW YOU LOOK AT ME
AND YOU WERE BEAUTIFUL
