You are like nails on a chalkboard

Your name and your face, oh lord

Save me from this pain

What was I going to gain

I hurt myself in hurting you

In doing so, I knew

I hurt you as much as I hurt me

The open gashes from on the rose thorns

I close my eyes and see your face with horns

I see mine in the mirror too

I turned you into a demon

With no god damn reason

And in that, I turned myself into one too

So your name and your face are like nails

Nails on a chalk board

Which I cannot afford

The shuttering it brings to me

The screaming in my head

Which always had lead

To my pain

My bloody footprints

Gently rinse

The crimson river

From the pained giver

Gut me with a knife

So I can fix your life

Long poem

Don't care

Unfair

Morbid brain

Heavy rain

I'm sorry

Just talk to me again

Speak again

With that smile

Stay awhile

Sing to me

Can't you see

That your name

Is the nails on the chalk board

And mine name is too
