I am the Titanic,
while you're an iceburg,
you're slowing drowing me...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You tore me apart with your words,
then blamed me for bleeding all over your conscience.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I feel so dead inside
I'm scared I'll leave a hint if decay on everyone I touch.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Feeling like a stranger in my own house,
when did we become so distant?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I always wonder,
how it feels like to be pretty.
I always wonder,
how it would feel to love yourself in a swimsuit.
I always wonder,
how it feels to love your voice.
I always wonder,
how it feels to have people who care.
I always wonder,
how it feels to eat and not feel ashamed.
I always wonder,
how it feels to go to bed happy.
I always wonder,
how it feels to wake up happy.
I always wonder,
how it would feel to love me for me.
I always wonder,
if i will ever know how it feels one day.
I always wonder,
if I would make it that far to know
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I just want someone who likes to look at the stars as much as I do.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I guess you could say I'm kind of cliché;
just another tortured teen with scars on her wrist and black coffee in her veins
and a heart that bleeds poetry about imaginary failings.
Don't tell me this is beautiful.
These words are me unravelling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do you know what it's like to be tortured by your own mind?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What doesn't kill us leaves scars on our wrists,
our thighs,
our dark minds,
stuck on our tongues,
burned into our eyes,
what doesn't kill us leaves us dead inside.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
