Weeping Wound
Inside Out
I'm inside out
No  one cares
I'm  inside out
No one's there

23 years in a cage
My  sentence etched to skin
Displays  the scenes my illness made

Calloused like a widow's feet
Following  a god, she doesn't believe
As if communal wine could replace
The bitter love of a man she HATES

Desecrated by the hands I trust -
I  feel so alone whenever I'm touched
As if the fear of seeming dull
Was enough to never
Stop

I stumble through my genes
My mouth: a flow of disgrace
Should I be ashamed of the blood or the drink?
I think
I think I wasted my mind
Ever worrying about my time
It fades intrusively -
My insides are out for all to see

I can't see anything

I'm inside out
No one cares
I'm inside out
There's no one fucking there

I'm inside out
No one cares
(no one cares)
I'm inside out
(I'm inside out)
There's no one there
There's no one there
