Behind a closed door, you'll never see
The salty tears that well up inside me
With the radio's volume turned up high
A sweet melody muffles my cry
Worn carpet soaks up my sorrow
And embraces my every woe
Why do they treat me this way?
No one to help me forget the wicked things they say
This toxic air is getting harder to breathe
I just don't know which lies to believe
I don't need them
I have my pen
Tendrils of misery strangle my heart
Pain and hurt thrive in the dark
Plunge a dagger into my skin
Not enough blood; you'd better try again
Kill me softly or kill me fast
Take your time and make it last
Kiss me, lips drenched in lust
Drink me in, if you must
Don a femme fatale guise
Force me to downcast blind eyes
I am helpless; you are so rough
Turn around and call it love.
