Analysis of Blade

Dani Faiers 1982 (New Zealand)



Lost to the blade once again
Voices echo in such pain
Poisoned blood in my veins
Is there no way from escaping this
Scarred feelings come alive
Emotions unravel
As shattered pieces fall to the ground
Once I was strong
But the uncertainty of the unknown
Overrules my head
