Lying in a casket


Now i'm laying in a casket 

well, do you want to know why?

these stripes across my forearm 

i swear they were a cry

i really wanted to tell you

i really wasn't "fine"

but well, you believed me 

so i kept up the lie 

now i'm lying in a casket 

because this was the last time 

i'm lying in a casket 

cause you didn't hear my goodbye

Just your typical geek. If you care to look deeper though...You can see the layers I have created. The worlds I call my own live in my imagination. Creating riddles and poems and lives and characters to become and get lost in. No one knows me, or at least the me behind the blinds. PLEASE COMMENT instagram=tamingofseawolves
