I am taking tranquilizers
In the form of inhailents
Just to keep crazy at bay
Was it ever as bad as I remember?
Hazy and incomplete
I'm not sure what happened then
Or why I feel this way
I'm always wondering where you stand
And why you seem so keen
On leaving me behind
I have spent so many days
Carving new scars out
Just to hide the ones you left behind
What really happened those nights?
I remember they came unwanted
Continued on until morning
The words that sliced through the silence
Accented only by the bullets
That were built with me in mind
How did you let it get there?
How could you allow it to occur?
Holding this grudge for so long
Scared of what could be
I think I'm finally done
Just a kiss on the cheek
And lay my burden down
Please tell me what you think

I agree with Child of Water... my first instinct was abuse but then I read over it again and thought ... hmmm maybe not...
the stanza
The words that sliced through the silence
Accented only by the bullets
That were built with me in mind
wow was incredible and definitely made me think a lovers fight
then this stanza
Scared of what could be
I think I'm finally done
Just a kiss on the cheek
And lay my burden down
made me smile for it shows strength and nobility.. being able to just let go and move forward

Quite dark. I was especially drawn to this part :
"The words that sliced through the silence
Accented only by the bullets
That were built with me in mind". That is powerful.
I felt like you were alluding to sexual assualt..mostly by this part "What really happened those nights?". Then again you could be referring to drug use, or simply the relationship. Anyways...not my place to pry. You did a good job at expressing yourself. I wish you the best.
