Poison

Let me lie to you while
I try to break my silence
Held on the inside
I know that this is not right
My angst, my anger
Please know I'm listening
Even when I'm screaming
Even when I'm on the floor
Seizing up my bleeding heart

Malignant poison runs through my veins
I still remember the look on your face

You, can't beat myself down
You, can't beat my soul down
You, can't take my breath away

Been here for a while
And my decisions left me standing
Alone at the pier
I'd plead my case but you would not hear
My angst, my anger
Please know I'm trying
Even when I'm freezing
Even when I'm at the door
About to turn away
