My guilty conscious is eating me away

Struggling with it every day

I wish I hadn't left

Somewhat a theft

Taking feelings and crushing them

While I'm here

facing fears

Wiping tears

Believe me I wish I wasn't gone

My life however, feels like a pawn

Drawn and quartered

A brick wall without mortar

Falling apart like an old rusty car

Wishing on a shooting star

That they will forgive me for leaving

And for wanting to be bleeding

My desires gone

My soul bared

The people just stared

So I closed off from the world

My fingers curled

Trying to grasp the very vice

That changed my heart to ice

Knocking down walls

You answered my calls

Giving me hope

If just for a moment

I used you to fend off the night

You, so full of light

Oh, what have I done

Oh, what have I become

I'm sorry.

I left, and cut a hole

My reasons black as coal.

Forgive me.

I tried to become someone I was not

But that's just it.

I don't know who I am.

Not anymore.

Anything that defined me is gone.

So, I'm sorry.

As the light lifts up the dawn.
