Tainted
You love me I know
But malice does show
Never intentional, but curses that crush me,
They set my pain free.
Fevered and afraid
My heart is breaking in the places it's been flayed
Skinned alive, my blood is flowing close outside.
Pouring itself down my face like tears
Representing the untainted time
It is zigzagging across my jagged soul.
I just can't seem to let go
My anger is fading
But the hurt is shading every corner of my life.
As I sit and cry
My tainted wings are too broken to fly.
