October Rains

My heart you will not shatter
Cut me and I will stitch
With sharp claws you attack
Not just another teenage tragedy
For I am free
I will be out by October

Winds of October
Windows to the mind shatter
Souls cannot be set free
Boney fingers slide through each stitch
Battered chests whisper tragedy
Past ghosts attack

Pint-sized demons attack
They come alive in October
Turn youth into a walking tragedy
Morals shatter
Surgery cannot demise the stitch
Nothing is free

From this prison I will be free
With taunts he will attack
The slits they must stitch
I will not be out by October
Sanity you shatter
He has turned me into a tragedy

My life is nothing but a tragedy
Your memories I cannot free
All hope begins to shatter
He launches the attack
She is with him by October
My skin is too soggy to stitch

Months later, I will value the stitch
No more am I your secret tragedy
I am out by October
Rains from clouds fall on me, free
My life it tries to attack
I will not shatter
