I heard it on the news

I saw it on the newspapers

I heard rumors

They make me nervous

They say I can get help

I see him for who he is

He never loved me

I did not hallucinate any of it

He crawled on top of me my entire childhood

He thought he had sealed my tomb for good

He thought what was hidden, will never come to see the light of day

I know the pain of being doubted by everyone around you

It ravages the soul

After everything that you’ve seen

After everything that has happened

Being no stranger to tragedy

Dry your tears child

Life is too short for so much sorrow
