Release

you couldn't run from what you became

from one who would vent his revenge

through the time you were young

to look up to the put downs he gave instead

in all your darkest questions

you could never find the answers

this chance with death overcasting the way

tempted to try the peace you could give

you would wear your torment on the inside

you'd hide it so well

until you released it again

i thought i could help you

and you would weep to me

reveal this withered spirit

pour out your soul

let me share your misery

and sometimes i saw myself in you

recognised the colourless feelings

we shared relief in knowing we were not alone

i couldn't convince you to believe

the hope had already gone

you'd suffered alienation for far too long

you'd resigned to the description

when you took your own life

your past would never leave

you had already died

the night you chose the ending

i can see those sbtle warnings

pass like it was meant to be

but i am just as quilty

bet you don't miss it here
