A Vocabulary Understood Only By A Man Who Never Understands




He moves freely yet so captive
He follows his own shadow
He screams : "Damn this!"
He screams and no one hears his cry
Only his heart can endure
Only his heart
Where does he start?
Where does he end?
This feeling extends
Beyond all imagination
A feeling made
Beyond all creation
Make me new and take this away
Make me fall into redemption
Give me the needed affection
I need it now
I yearn and scream for it
It doesn't exist
It's not here
It won't last, not this
No one listens because they are not ready to hear
I scream so loud and clear
But only I understand
Only I
I understand, but I don't know why
I cry
I cry till every tear hits the floor
Pick up my tears, clean the puddle
I scream again and it remains suttle
Scream into my ear so I don't hear my heart
I can't take it
Scream, scream, scream
So I don't hear the voices say
Say the language of regret and pain
Take it all away
Start it over, reset
Do it again, with no regret
I speak in a normal tone
Only I understand, so I stand alone
Stay in my dome
Where no one will enter
No more damage
No more
Show me your past, I'll show you mine
Show me your feelings, what's inside
I do, I did, I cried
I cried and it won't happen again
I only trust that statement
As much as I am forced to trust "friends"
They only drag me down the pavement
I need something to deal this pain with
Show me it
Change me
Make me better
Even though I know you can't
Because only I understand
