You all lean on me <br />but can you see when I bleed? <br />do you notice when I need <br />someone standing right by me <br /> <br />will you listen to my song? <br />will you smile and cheer me on? <br />will you help when i fall? <br /> <br />I thought you would care <br />but now I see that I'm wrong <br />cause now these cuts are part of me <br /> <br />and the music lets me bleed <br />it lets me be <br />it lets me breath <br /> <br />and see that it's all that I need <br />I need the lyrics and the song <br />I need the rhythm so I can hold on <br /> <br />to something other than pain <br />something that doesn't take away <br />something that gives more than it can take <br /> <br />just let me bleed my dreams today <br />and tomorrow will be different <br />a new start <br />a new way <br /> <br />to bleed myself dry <br />to not let myself cry <br />and to keep on helping you <br /> <br />giving you all you need <br />showing you smiles and making you see <br />that the future is hopeful <br /> <br />when all I can see are the scars in front of me <br />and the only thing for me to hope for is <br />that you will succeed <br />no not me <br /> <br />you <br />yes, you <br />because i put everything I have <br />into making you glad <br />and now that's all that I'm left with <br /> <br />cause it's worthwhile <br />to see you smile <br />even when I'm bleeding <br /> <br />and kneeling <br />and crying <br />and dying <br /> <br />no, it doesn't matter <br />just let me bleed to death <br />your happiness is my final request <br /> <br />but when I'm gone <br />let the truth rain down on you <br />so that it's all that you see <br /> <br />and all that you feel <br />and let the stars shine <br />so that you remember me <br /> <br />so that my lungs will continue to breath <br />and my wrists continue to bleed <br />and my love continues to show <br /> <br />so that the whole world will know <br />how much you meant to me<br /><br />Annie Janine<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/doesn-t-matter-9/
