Seppuku

Like we said at the start
It’s a part of us all
It’s the picture we hang
On the burning wall
Shouldering a wounded heart
With my pride on the line
The words tumble out wrong
As I turn the knife
Before you turn to speak
I know the answer
And my face turns white
Before you turn to leave
I get there faster
All the world just seems to melt away
Who needs these people’s pity anyways
Shades of truth in their words
Enough to light up in sparks
Every thing that we’ve made
All gets torn apart
A blood soaked flick of the wrist
And the ashes fly off
I don’t know what I’ve done
Until once it’s stopped
All the world just seems to melt away
Who needs these people’s pity anyways
All the world world just seems to melt away
Who needs these people’s comfort anyways
Can’t calm down
Carry it all around
Every second, every breathe
Save yourself
I can not be helped
A little choked up just at the thought of it
