If I Could

I think I overthink.
Gazing in the stars.
Trying not to let them bleed,
these anceint battle scars.

Trying not to close my eyes,
to keep them to the sky.
But at the same time I'm fighting,
I have to wonder why.

What is worth this?
What am I doing?
Inside my head,
heavy thoughts stewing.

Watching people fall,
stepped on by who they love.
Some people from the devil's gate,
abuse those from above.

Watching everything end,
keeping my face blank.
Wondering how much else I'll ruin,
not sure I like being fake.

Not sure even if you could,
I would let you see.
I'm not ready to be someone else,
not yet ready to be me.

But I can't anyway,
so what I think can't be.
I wonder why life is this way.
Kept in the dark, I want to see.

I wish I could tell you,
but myself I would break.
Stand here, eyes shut,
ignoring myself as my shoulder's shake.

Coming out, sitting down,
talking softly together.
Watching the clear night sky,
promising fair, soft weather.

Sitting here, content agenst you.
Can't say what I feel.
Wishing to bring myself to life,
to make everything real.

But leaning agenst you,
for now will have to do.
For the daugther of the devil,
to herself can't be true.
