Better

let me not listen to those around me
let me not trust those who lie to me
let me never forget my lost
let me never let go of my love
let me speak to one immortal
take my words
and write them down

release the truth you hold dear
release my soul and take its place
let the world show you the beauty
runaway from negativity
embrace the embers of life
watch our sunsets
hold my hand and never say goodbye

hold me why I cry
laugh with me when I joke
clear with me their empty lies
fear not the coming days
keep my life positive

never run away
look for the truth
no more lies
no more tears
no more scars on your wrists
no more bloody knives
hidden in the dark

it always gets better.
