Still standing here

October 2, 2013

I'm tired of crying

I'm sick of trying 

If I had one choice it'll probablly be dying

Love never dies , Pain never heals 

What is love? Its a bullet that kills

Truth never reveals its self to the ones who need it most

But lies cut deep . kills fast , hurts slow

And I ask myself does pain feel good?

Because love doesnt hit the spot like I thought it would

So respect me or Leave me I really dont care

Because whatever you choose I'll still be standing here!
