Words alone are weak and dull,
Emotions infuse harm

Have you seen the way that spellbound eyes
Cast magic laced with charm

While heartless lips speak poisoned arrows,
Tailored to their mark

Watch the hateful hiss of letters twist,
They're taking aim at hidden scars


๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ง๐˜ข๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฉ ๐˜ญ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ฅ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ข๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ณ๐˜ข๐˜บ?
Danger came dressed up as passion,
beauty as its mask

This cunning act of love misled your heart to share its past

Strung upon a bitter bow,
Wound tightly with intent

Shot coldly from a hand you trust,
Words can outweigh led


๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜จ๐˜ฉ๐˜ต๐˜ด ๐˜ฆ๐˜ข๐˜ต ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ ๐˜ข๐˜ญ๐˜ช๐˜ท๐˜ฆ?
They start to pierce your fragile skin,
Pain mixes with dread,

The words that taint your broken heart
Were born from your own head

Each sentence sparks emotions
That pull on your nerves like threads

Unravelling the stories
You wish you'd left unread


๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜บ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ณ ๐˜ด๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ ๐˜ต๐˜ถ๐˜ณ๐˜ฏ ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ช๐˜ฅ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ต?
Secrets dark and buried,
All the things you've left unsaid

In shameful haste you bear your hate
To hide your sins instead

It's time to face your killer
You start to turn your head

But all you face is an empty room,
Reflections lay ahead


๐˜Š๐˜ฐ๐˜ถ๐˜ญ๐˜ฅ ๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ฎ๐˜ฐ๐˜ฏ๐˜ด๐˜ต๐˜ฆ๐˜ณ ๐˜ฃ๐˜ฆ ๐˜ธ๐˜ช๐˜ต๐˜ฉ๐˜ช๐˜ฏ?
It's you who wears the bleeding tongue,
you bite on it again

Your secrets all devour you
Paranoia fuels the dread

You donโ€™t care for wrong and right,
Black and white start to blend

Words alone can't pierce the skin
But truths tear flesh to shreds
