Shut the gate
January 13, 2011
Shut the gate
dont let them in
all they do is hurt you
why go through the pain
why suffer again
when you can shut yourself in
lock it all up tight
shut off the lights
pretend no ones home
and maybe they will leave you alone-
They cant get in
when you reject them
scream and shout
words mean nothing to them
hurting you is all they think about
your pain is
their favorite gain
breaking you
was the reason
they were made-
They cant hurt you
if you shut them out
shut off the lights
leave a black abyss
theyll think your gone
and leave it like that.
