Deaf

Are you listening?

Or am I not speaking aloud?

Are my cries not reaching your ears?

Or are you ignoring them?

Ignorance is bliss, but when you ignore those in pain it will eventually get to you.

It will eat you away from the inside to see them in pain...

Your family, your friends, they'll all turn from you,

Or wither away,

Because you were heedless of their plea.

Did you say something?

I was too busy killing myself to see you,

To notice, to bother caring,

That you were:

Burning away, losing yourself.

You know what they say:

"Liar, hire, pants on fire."

Did you get what was coming to you?

Or is the fact that you left me on the floor, blood pouring like a fountain...

Still not reached into the depths of your tiny beatless heart...

And ripped it from your spine.

If you had one, that is, for you are a spineless bastard.
