Shallow Grave

by: XBloodBathX

I bashed my brittle bones

Road rashed my withered skin

I bled and died for you for nothing

The shadows ripped away

The ugly side of me

Is bared for all to see and laugh at

Bleeding on, people who, didn’t cut you

Has always been our game

We weaponize our pain

I hide my head in shame 

There’s nothing I can do

This cold and lonely floor feels like you 

The comfort I once felt

No access to it now

The ones who cared for me have moved on

I wish that you could see

This light inside of me

You turned and ran away

I needed you

I needed you

And I still do 

Dig my shallow grave

Throw my love away

History will not remember

The things I’ve done for you

Most people never do

I am just an instrument to use
