For my sister Mel, who has held my hand through it all.
2.jpgThis is the truth
The pure unadulterated truth
Of a mind waging war on itself
2.jpgHow could anybody do the things you did to me?
You drew my blood over and over till I was dry inside
Now all I do is sit and stare at the wounds you made
These are the words I tried so hard to hold down
2.jpgMy heart is bleeding out
