i wish my heart was

still mine to give

and not yours to take

to do with as you wish

i wish i

could wish hurt upon you

like you did when

you carved your name into skin

So I could never forget you

Tattoos can always be erased

But scars will always remain

Even when I start to forget

A curious eye will remind me

i wish i could wish

hurt upon you

like you did when

You filled my head with hot air

I stab my head to let the pressure out

And have to turn my blood into ink

to keep myself sane

the phantom ache in my chest

from the invisible bullet

you shot me with

I have to keep pressing on the wound

just to stop the hemorraging

I’ll never recover

No doctor can fix me

No medicine will take

I can only numb the pain

With your drug

So I guess you've won

Yet again
