Bleed

Heroin against water, Heroin won
I guess she's happy she found the one
He stuck in his needle, created a need
cut open her heart and watched her bleed
Didn't realize at all what he had
Decided to run with the newest of fads
Left her with me, so I would hope she would stay
then offered her fix and snatched her away
Leaving me stranded and all alone
on an ocean of love with a sinking boat
Leaving me nothing to patch the hole in my heart
Taking all meaning away from my art
Forcing her to live with loving me
I really don't like him, I hope that he sees
That while he created, and now exploits a need
It hurts ME to see her bleed.

  1. Holy shit. I'd call that the best thing you've ever written, at least that I've read, and it really needs to be made into a gritty rock song.

    On the other side of things...
    Probably the truest thing I've read in a long time. And I really really really want to give you a hug.

  2. I really like it. And funny enough, this had sort of a screamo vibe when I came up with the couplet that started it.

    And I would really really really love one...
