Your pain is something you wear Strapped Pinned Stapled Nailed To your chest
You can't hide it There's no use Why would you try to tuck away something so Gratuitous Toxic Bloody And Beautiful?
It's too big to hide under your bed Too shiny to hide in your dark corners Too smart for you to try to convince it that it doesn't existence
So you're stuck with it And since you're stuck with it You wear it Wear it like the Badge of Courage it is Like the Medal of Honor you earned
Like the Nobel Peace Prize you worked so hard Just to say That you finally made it
