Compulsion

Hiding in the dark
I shut it all out
I'm using it again
To fill the well with rain
I double cross my heart
The devil breaks his back
Sowing seeds of doubt
Open up the wound
The scar may disappear
But I just can't rub it out

What if I was stronger
What could I learn
Old enough to know better
Young enough to burn
Watching it unfold
Looking down I see it all
Like awitness to the scene
Caught in between
The silence and the scream

What if I was stronger
What could I learn
Old enough to know better
Young enough to burn
