If the walls could speak
what would they say?
Would they tell how many tears you cried
how many many times you lied?
Would they talk about the times you bled
make the memories replay in my head?
Would they show me the razors you used to cut?
Would they tell me why or maybe what?
Would they tell me about that last day
your father said you couldn't play?
Would the walls say that I was lucky as hell,
that I didn't have to hear him yell?
Because if they did then maybe I'd see,
just how much you needed me.
