These tears,
Are burning my cheeks.

Like coals to the skin,
It leaves a scar on my heart

Stop making my soul cry
I don’t think i can take it anymore.

These tears,
Are burning my eyes.

Like a knife to my wrists,
It leaves a scar on my heart.

Stop,
Stop now.
For my love for you is gone
And now you are piercing my heart
With your crude words that you bring.

Leave my life,
So I don’t have to bear this pain anymore.
Goodbye forever and ever.

It really is! the power is in the fact that so many people can relate. and that's aweful. the fact that even the people who haven't been there at least know someone who has. it says a lot about society now and what is socially acceptable. it's so sad and so powerful. i love it. <3
