Hatchet

Hatchet

I’m cold inside and you’re away
A text of farewell cut in my veins
With you in my thoughts, I can never recover
Dying slowly in this venom bath of despair

Oh, I miss you, and all that I say to me
My pain is voiceless, my heart says, oh, ouchie!

Why did you even appear in my life?
I rest my hatchet—I’m done with your lie
Though I suffer, I miss you still

And inside me, all I hear…
Oh, my heart is screaming—
Ouchie, it hurts… oh, my ouchie!
I miss you still

Ouchie… I feel it, I won’t hide
Pain in my chest, but I’m still alive
Cut through the silence, I rise, I rise
I rest my hatchet… I’m done with your lies

I wash your name out of my skin
No more war that I can’t win
If I bleed, I’ll bleed and mend
I choose me—this is the end

No more echoes in my night
I reclaim my breath, my light
Still I whisper, soft but true…
I survived loving you
