Scratching Post

Ok, so I don't really have anything I want to write at the moment until I figure out what's happening with all these tests and exams, so I'll just put down a song I wrote:


Scratching Post


Black as the blood flowing from my veins
Slide the silver from my flesha nd watch the carpet stain
Roaring down like a waterfall, watch me bleed
Then turn around and try to tell me what it is that I need

Red are my eyes that have seen too many days
Filled with hatred and of one too many undying phases
And though I know I will live to see atleast one million more
Wear these scars like trophy mantles, let them help me to keep score

I promised I would never fall again (no matter how much it hurt)
I promised I would never lie (and forever now I will)
Keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns

White are the teeth that have spoke their lies
Watch their venom slowly spread across untarnished skies
Infesting the wounds that have cut so deep
Watch me burn, watch me bleed while the poison sleeps

Green is the colour of the great succession
Brought by jealousy and greed and by deep recession
To the scratching post that everyone will need someday
But when the pain courses through, hold your ground don't runaway

I promised I would never fall again (no matter how much it hurt)
I promised I would never lie (and forever now I will)
Keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns

And I'm -
Nothing but angry,
For letting me get this way
Nothing but blind,
To all the things that they say
Nothing no more,
Just a scratching post again
Nothing no more...

I promised I would never fall again (no matter how much it hurt)
I promised I would never lie (and forever now I will)
Keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns

Grey as the stone that has become my life
Never blinding, never changing, always cold like a knife
Glaring down from the pedestal, watch them kneel
Then strike them down so they finally figure out just how it feels

I promised I would never fall again (no matter how much it hurt)
I promised I would never lie (and forever now I will)
Keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything...
Line them up again!

I promised I would never fall again (and forever now I will)
I promised I would never life (no matter how much it hurts)
Keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns

I promised I would never lie again (no matter the cost to me)
Keep thep romises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns

I'll keep the promises I said I would
And line up everything and catch them by the horns
Lineup everything and catch them by the horns

To be a scratching post




There. Strange huh?
