Life Like Safetypins Poem by Christopher's Dead

Realizing the things that scare you now,
Keep bringing up thoughts, hope to show you how
We're living amongst liars, cheaters, and fakes,
Hiding breath after painstaking breath that they take,
Away from you, just to shield all of their worst
Nightmares, so there's no way they can make you hurt.
Like an umbrella, keeping you dry from the rain,
They cover up things, unwilling to stain
Your little white dress, now tarnished with dirt,
Had to find out, not entirely their fault,
You seem so delicate, compare the world around you,
Didn't want you to feel emotions that cause you to
Cry, dried your eyes, with such innocent lies
All together, they add up to one big crime.

Not trying to burden you with
Any trying problems,
Love if we'd live
Without feeling sorry, broken, and dumb
Won't pretend
The feelings aren't gonna come.

Emotionally speaking, the world's completely sucked dry
Of any real conscience, no intentions to try
To be open and honest, end up making a fool
Of who they're hiding this from, giving up soon
Any hope that we had for the rest of the world,
Focusing on you, know that they broke my girl.
Like a safetypin, so that no one will be cut,
Though their sharpness is there, underneath it, so what
That it hurts more the longer it takes to find out,
We'll pass this down the line, no one has any doubt.
Eventually the news will reach you, my love,
So sorry they never thought you were strong enough
To take it, not break it, the way that they make it,
Bleed slower than fast, though no one's exempt from it.

Afraid that the people you loved before me,
Led you on for too long.
Not telling you their mistakes thus leaving you empty,
For so long.
Safety, it's not healthy the way things blissfully,
Are now gone.
'Cause they weren't
Neither is the point of a safetypin...
