On Display

Held my ground with silence
Never ran astray
Kept it in so tightly
All until today
Now I’m on display
Tied up and judged in every way
And I must obey
Tell me that it gets better someday
Petrified and speechless
As they come observe
Every flaw and weakness
Cause if you haven’t heard
I’m on display
My bones are carved out thoroughly
And my blood is grey
Tell me that it gets better someday
Tell me I’ll escape this torture
Regain colour, rebuild structure
Tell me this is not forever
I can’t breathe I need an answer
Cause I’m on display
My soul will hang in disarray
Can’t walk away
Tell me that it gets better some day
