Oh my dear!

Oh my dear, what have we here?
A cesspit of anger and strife
Oh dear me, see what I see?
A wasted excuse of a life

Look at this, what lack of bliss!
With tears and hurt and pain
Oh my dear, but you don't care
They shall not live again

Hear me?

I see the pain that lies beneath
Your skin beneath your shield
The hurt you tried to cover up
The aching you concealed

To make your friends not see the truth
Not see that you are weak
But I know that acknowledgement's
The only thing you seek

I don't want you to feel this way
Despite the things I've said
They were in anger and in craze
My mind was tainted red

I'm trying to erase our past
And make it up to you
And I want you to know that I'll
Be honest and be true

Forgive me please for what I've done
It's not happening again
So please don't cry coz I am here
Sun will shine through the rain
