Handcuffs & Pistols

Have you ever felt like
you just want to
be held hostage
to see if you’re missed
handle the situation
to prove everyone wrong
 
Boys will be boys
girls will be prissy
the analogy of
handcuffs and pistols
will forever be
kept a secret
as you scream
in your sleep
and you struggle
in your seat
 
hold me down tight
dont let go till i die
because I want to suffer
want you to hear my cry
to drowned out the voices
telling me to lie
to everyone around me
but they just sigh
 
dont be sympathetic
believe me, believe me
life isn’t too meaningful
deceive me, deceive me
Its okay, I wont cry
Im dying, Im dying
Everything will be alright

(2006)
