When all I feel is hate
Our eyes meet
And my heart breaks
This soul is not yours to destroy
I would kill you if I had the nerve
But you are more powerful
Your spirit is stronger
And you use that
I have wings that you have lost
Why did you sell yours away?
The words that roll from your lips
Stab and cut my flesh
I bleed
You laugh
Why won't I cry?
You can't steal my tears
They are mine alone
They soak my pillow
The salt dries my lips
I won't let you see them
You aren't worth that
Go away and find another soul
You won't enslave mine
I can fly higher than your greedy arms can reach
Don't sing to me of love
When all I hear is hate
I won't listen anymore
