Agapē

i think she likes the pain.
and i miss the purity in youth i once saw behind her eyes.
so full of innocence--white as snow,
but the world took this, and tainted it.

just one smoke, just one hit.
just one star to make you wish.

i know he likes the pain.
and i'm scared to show him the truth as he falls on the knife.
so full of wickedness--depraved yet ignorant--[his spirit clashes]
for the world took this, and scattered its ashes.

just one pill, just one fit.
just one scar to make you wish.

a woman, a whore.
scribble out the meth scars and ecstasy stitch--
remember the little girl she once was?
the world took this, and burned it.

and you're all burning--
you're burning and it's killing me in such--
i see you burning, i always have--
yet my heart can only bear so much--

just one life, just one slit.
just one vein you swore you'd miss.
