hear


Oh when you speak it feels like screeching in my ear 

When you get angry i would cower in fear

But that made me angry no it made me swell up with vial 

But only if i can see with your eyes 

Do you have the same reasons as me or is it just your despise

Was there something i did forever up the line 

Was there whispers in your ears squawking that i did revolting things 

Or where you keeping a record with all the little things

But i can not see with your eyes or hear what you hear

Think what you think or remember how you remember 

But i do know what i know and see what i see  and  

 hear what i hear 

I know the pain that i feel

I know the monster in my eyes but 

When you speak it still feels like screeching in my ear 

I no longer, will never cower in fear
