Its still the night you left me in the rain
It's been a while now and I still feel the pain
And in my head are the words you said
they keep repeating over and again
She said I need to be free to move from this chain
my biggest move was done by staying the same
and as she walked away I couldnt even cry
It was hard to lose something that wasnt even mine

You turned your back when i asked of you
you showed me hell and you always knew
and after years of mending back
I look inside and my heart is black


I'm going crazy now locked in my head
I may as well pull cause I'm already dead
even when I talk its as if nobody hears
ooh that desolate feeling when nobody cares

They turned their backs when i asked of them
one against the tide and now i can not win
and after playing this lonely game
I look inside and I'm not the same

Surrounded by loved ones
they think they care
but they cant see
the pain you bear
false security
they try to give
but they don't give a shit
whether you feel good
when you say how are you
do you mean it
or is it a gesture
pretentious and fake
why do they come, why do they ask
I just want to run, and run
and keep hiding behind the masks
Even when you yell, they don't listen
complaints and fears
fall on deaf ears
tears glisten in my eyes
ignored as they fall to the floor
and here I am
once again
going through the doors
leaving behind
their laughter

As always two great poems that seem to fit like a puzzle.
