wasted tears

Find a word to fit the needs
that fits the feelings they can’t feel
i know they try and I know they care
but this is something beyond their universe
i’m alone in the night driving for hours

there are bruises on my body
and scratches on my skin
but no tears in my eyes
i won’t waste them on you and me

i’ve never been completely safe
in your strong arms and tantilizing eyes
your lies mix with my psyche
and creates the disorted reality
where black and blue skin is in fashion
and red strikes make you loved

there are bruises on my body
and scratches on my skin
but no tears in my eyes
i won’t waste them on you and me
