Go On And Play

You use your eyes,
like you're playing a game.

Deceiving and distrating me,
so I don't reach the goal.

But is it even worth it?

Pushing through razorblades,
slicing open wounds again and again.

You're tearing me open,
I hope you know.

You lead me through all this,
acting like I will get some relief,
from this stupid nightmare.

But you're deceptive.

You're telling the truth when you say you're a liar.
So how can I even begin to believe your sickly sweet voice?

But you can lead me along these roads,
where we move along beside your past.
Steel, empty eyes screaming at me to run.

I should know that every path you lead is the same.
Each leading to the same place of heartbreak.

A place darker than your eyes,
Deeper than my thoughts,
Filthier than yours.

But keep dragging me along,
treating me like you saved me from something,
other than yourself.

I need someone to tell me what I am worth,
That you do care about me,
That you will rescue me from this game.

This game where you're the prize and the enemy,
the game where I can never win.

Because I'll always be stuck listening to your poison voice,
and believing every word of it.
