Words or Something


The poison in your words Is killing me slow I don't feel a thing But it hurts to know That your words are concrete Bringing me down Sinking to the bottom I start to drown I choke on my own words And I turn blue This is my life without you I have something to say And so do you My words are of the healing kind Your words leave my lying with "I'm fine." Shh. Leave me alone. Hush. I'm already gone.
