Playing along

I just wish those hands were cut
they're running down your skin now
tracing its smooth shape, feeling the softness
maybe I'd like those hands were mine?

I just wish that mouth would shut
no more do this no more go there
it's irritating and makes mad
so I escape in quieter worlds.

I just wish he meant nothing to you
I would hug the pain away and dry your tears
I would steal you from the bore
and take you places you only dreamt of.

But what I wish can't be had
and just like a game with unfair rules
I shut up and play along
they say don't give up...

but I'm so tired of losing.
