Not Fine, Not OK

written by: OurSacredHonor

Breathe taking and pain staking all at the same time
Life giving and murdering but neither is a crime
Every day it's that same old line
"I'll be ok, really I'm fine"

With that same moment you take my breathe you seem to give away your own
Lonely nights and endless fights, crying on the phone
Persist and proceed
To feed the need
The hunger inside fueled by greed
Concede and leave
You grieve
Perceive
The lies inside
that we both hide
beneath the pride
the shell
oh well
to hell
with it
enough of this
it's all bullshit
the games we play
to get our way
the words we say
pain won't go away
we live the broken dreams we create
and fate's last date
was too damn late
so we try to recover
as broken lovers
as we hover
above the nothing
that we wish could be something
well i burn, i yearn to learn
but i can't discern
dreams from reality
but don't pity me
it makes me sick to see
people on there knees,
i won't give up, i won't give in,
i'm in it for keeps i'm gonna win
i may be alone, i may have someone
we'll find out when this is done
but in the end... my battle's won
