You are Bound
Location
It’s so frustrating
You’re suffocating on Societies poison of thoughts and decisions
You want to be prestigious so you study its artificiality like it’s a religion
I still wonder why nobody listens
Maybe it’s because you wear that fake smile well
That forced, perfect and pale curve that’s splattered across your face can fool anyone
They don’t realize that your hands shake and your voice quivers
For every stupid comment that the bully makes as he pushes you across the hall and you feel so small
The stress to be just as good as the rest
And when you go home, you have no time to be a kid but an adult
You have been bent for so long you’re bound to break
You have walked straight into society’s education system where they teach you what to say, what to wear, how to look and feed you lies on what’s pretty and perfect
So you throw up the little bit that you ate because the curves that you wear just doesn’t meet societies level of pretty
You paint your face leaving no trace of your sorrow and tired eyes
You play the role they tell you too
Don’t play with fire, you’re bound to get burned
It’s absurd
That nobody has seen your uncured scars that shout for help
You’re worn out
I can see it every time you lay your head on the desk
Just waiting for your Superhero to take you away in his arms as you fly away to paradise
And you think it’s with that guy who looks just like the one: Tall, Dark and Handsome
He tells you that you’re special calls you beautiful and treats you gentle
But I know you see him flirting and looking at other girls, just be careful
Don’t play with fire you’re bound to get burned
I can see you falling apart
You tell yourself lies that expose your cries that are in need of saving
But you say that you’re fine
But please do me a favor and realize that you are not fine
Don’t you see?
You are bound t the evil sound that the Devil makes because it soothes your demons to sleep
You are bound to the cries you let out at night because sometimes it gets so hard to fight for your life
You are bound to the blades sharp silver lining that caresses your skin because it makes you feel alive
You are bound to the high every time you take a hit because it erases the pain
You say that you’re okay
But I can see
Your hands shake and hear your voice quiver
