Every Scar

I tried, for so long I have tried
To write the words you never knew I ever knew
To fill, and show you every star
Return from every place
Re-open every wound
Re-open every door
One moment of clarity
Could wipe the filth from your eyes
A useless condition
Wrapped in your blanket of lies
I tried, for so long I have tried
To see the tears, the ones you never dreamed
I cried, to bottle them for you
So that you might read
And not need to see
What's become of me
One moment of clarity
Open your eyes and look at me
One moment of silence
Could bring the earth all around
All my words
Lost, sickened, damned
All my words
Lost, sickened, damned
All my words
Forced on, and tricked on
Down from your god
A fading star chart
Was all I had to guide me through the night
My eyes strained for a lace
From this orange rain
I feel this person that I
Was never meant to be
