the ugly

the ugly

words fall through me
always wound me
i can’t react
i’m picking up pieces
trying to work it out
i don’t understand
standing here in uncertainty
i’m closer
than i’ve ever been before
yet so far away
if I have something to say
i better say it now!
cause it’s my chance
to even up the score
my chance to say
what should have been said before
and as these ghosts begin to fall
their blind ears will hear
their hollow eyes will see
the pain
of the unwanted
the ugly
the undesirable
why did you reached out
to take my hand
but let it go
my silent song sings along
to words
that plague my head
words, lies
lies, my shadows have consumed
if i have something to say
i better say it now!
say it now!
say it to you now…
