Blue veins bleed Red

1 2

Am i not human?

Is it not blood that runs through my veins?

my veins. All purple and green and blue,

am i not human?

Does the heart in my chest not beat?

pumping my blood dark and red all the way through,

am i not human?

Is my head not filled with dreams?

my dreams. All impossible to do,

am i not human?

I’d like to know,

no really, I’d like to know, tell me.

These veins, does blood really flow through them?

This heart, does it truly beat?

Those dreams, do I really believe them?

silence answers my questions as i bleed.

cut now i feel alive,

cut now i know i’m real,

cut now i see the proof,

cut now i can finally heal.

They look at me with pity,

poor poor girl they say,

they look at me with sadness,

a good life wasted away,

but they’d be jealous if they knew,

if they could only feel,

they’d be jealous if they knew,

how it felt to feel so real.
