Hear her Call

You said that you
Free her
Would catch her
Not stand by
You would catch her fall

As she calls out your name
Silenced by isolation
You don't hear her call



Promises made
Never to be spoken
Now left broken
Shadows cast
Walked out the door
Printed on the floor
Issues left unspoken



Release the inner sound
Hear her heart pound
Raise the bar high
Don't tell her a lie
Pull up a stool
Act like a fool
A ticket
Printed in blood
To hear her cry



Washed out
Turned out
Worn out
Burnt out

Drenched to the skin
Soaked within
Pushing and pulling
Full of sin
Never going to win



Catch another glimpse
Rise amongst the pimps
Catch an eye full
Never going to persuade her to stay
watch her walk away

No future
No walls to build
No heart
To destroy
To cull
To be willed
