Array ( [sid] => 6824 [catid] => 1 [aid] => Mick [title] => don't pretend [time] => 2002-11-16 15:00:00 [hometext] => there's not really much to say, this isn't one of my best poems, just my most recent one [bodytext] => I don’t understand why I can’t go on, it’s all changed
I’ve lost all hope and I don’t know how to cope
I don’t know where im heading or where I am
This isn’t where I want to be, in me

All I see around me means nothing
I don’t understand what chains me to the cutting
Because they’re not real
They’ve forgotten how to feel
I’ll never make it there again
I’ll never make it through the rain
And just for once youre gonna have to trust in me
I’m fed up of pretending I know how to be

And now, forever, im just gonna stand here
Im gonna let you do everything you think you can
My eyes are so full of hatred, and fear
All I ever wanted was to hold your hand
So throw me down, I can see the light, now it’s so near
don’t ever pretend you understand

don't pretend

Topic: Suicide



I don’t understand why I can’t go on, it’s all changed
I’ve lost all hope and I don’t know how to cope
I don’t know where im heading or where I am
This isn’t where I want to be, in me

All I see around me means nothing
I don’t understand what chains me to the cutting
Because they’re not real
They’ve forgotten how to feel
I’ll never make it there again
I’ll never make it through the rain
And just for once youre gonna have to trust in me
I’m fed up of pretending I know how to be

And now, forever, im just gonna stand here
Im gonna let you do everything you think you can
My eyes are so full of hatred, and fear
All I ever wanted was to hold your hand
So throw me down, I can see the light, now it’s so near
don’t ever pretend you understand
