//You scar me and call yourself a healer
I cry myself to sleep at night
thinking it might eventually get better,
only for you to put the baggage of your ‘humour’ (read: insecurities) on my shoulders.
I pretend to stifle a ‘scoff’ (read: sob)
as i try to pass you by
being dumbfounded and laughed at
and my shoulders feel numb and tears threaten to fall.
You push me to a dark corner i can’t retreat back from.
With your hand around my neck
i can’t seem to find my voice,
I want to breathe, you’re choking me.

// I want to breathe, you’re choking me
I can’t seem to find my voice
with your hand around my neck.
You push me to a dark corner i can’t retreat back from
and my shoulders feel numb and tears threaten to fall,
being dumbfounded and laughed at.
As i try to pass you by,
i pretend to stifle a ‘scoff’ (read: sob)
only for you to put the baggage of your ‘humour’ (read: insecurities) on my shoulders.
Thinking it might eventually get better,
Lord knows how i cry myself to sleep at night.
Yet, you scar me and call yourself a healer?
