Penetration

You never know what you have till it's lost to someone else

You never understand until the end

You never want to be advised of what you had

And yet, you never have a shadow of a doubt

You never think about anything until it doesn't matter

You never see a clear picture without

Then all at once, your life falls apart

and you're left within the depths of a personal hell, unable to be broken

away from, and you wonder what if you had done different

and you realize nothing really matters

You always did everything they way they wanted, but never how they expected

You always protected as they knew you would, disregarding the loss

You always trusted, but sometimes too much

(Refrain)

Then all at once, you wonder why

You recapture all the stabbings

you pull out the knife and stare at the wounds,

the scars that you never knew existed

When did they

How could they

What were they

Why would they

Where have they

Who are they
