I push you away from me

Keep you out of arms reach as I

Cry my tears in silence

Alone

Wishing you were here holding me

Comforting me in my time of need

Refusing your help

Earning your scorn when all I wanted was to

Protect myself

From bearing my heart to your daggers of help

With the best of intentions you bury the blades

Deep and cruel

Never knowing the pain your words have wrought

My broken heart cries out for help

Wishing you could mend it as you once did

Make it whole like you had made it once before

Now it cries in tears of love and blood

As I cry myself to sleep

Falling deeper into damnation

I reach out for you to save me

And with those same hands

I'm pushing you away
