i never thought you'd use that too against me
and you destroy me again and each day i face the demon that left me so tired the days before
so i smile everyday and they always ask if i'm okay
i laugh at them at their poor blind eyes
and speak through my eyes and i scream help me
but they only look at my mouth to make sure all i say is that i'm fine
they don't wanna trouble themselves with me
so please before she hurts me i plead just help me
but their backs have turned and i'm alone with you and you alone
i smile and follow your lead
you drag me down and my heart starts to bleed because i know what comes next
but you surprise me
i always hugged you but now you slap me
ask me if i said i'm fine
i look in your eyes and say
of course i told i'm fine why wouldn't i be anyway but this conversation turns for the worst
when you destroy me again
and i have no more friends
because i thought you would help me
but this time the pain never ends and then it becomes
a numbing throb that comforts me so i open my arms
and accept the darkness
i comfort it and nurse it until the day the knife in my hand
contemplates whether or not i should cut it
then the moment came
the moment i am there the knife in my hand i clench my fist
and the knife cuts my skin the pain is something that hurts but at least i can feel it i stare in awe as the blood stains the knife and i drive it deeper just below my pulse
that's when the blood rises once more to the surface
i lick the blood from the knife in a twisted kiss
it's now my only friend
that and the darkness that dwells in the pit of sadness and despair that flash in my eyes at the worst of times
one that you only see when i'm alone
watching the movie
because i know it ain't real life so i'm allowed to empathise
one day i tell you
please leave me
my heart can't stand the darkness consuming me
and i look in your eyes
and i see me in them
all the pain over the years showing on my face
and i'm stumbling through the night
it doesn't matter the pain ain't over
and i'm crying every night
it doesn't matter
i'll hold it together
i know you
i know you will hurt me forever
it doesn't matter my death is near
and i'm stumbling through the night
death i don't fear my end is near
and is paradise to my life, the crap i go through
the life that is true
and i don't know if i will survive
it doesn't matter you are here
and i will die
and you laugh with no mirth
just glad you took what you came for
left me wrung out like a dishcloth
you turn away
every day's the same
i fight to find my way
i hurt
i break
i hide
and try to pray
i wonder why?
does anybody ever hear me when i cry?
today i just turned fifteen
everyone blanking me
so i don't want to smile
they never get past arms length
how could they act like everything is alright
the girl i am
she says
maybe making me bleed
will be the answer that could wash the slate clean
everyday's the same
i fight to find my way
i hurt
i break
i hide
and try to pray
i wonder why?
does anyone ever hear me when i cry
this is the dark before the dawn
the storm before the peace
don't be afraid
'cause seasons change
everyday's the same
i fight to find my way
i hurt
i break
i hide
and try to pray
i'll be just fine
'cause god is watching over me
he hears me
and catches me before i fly
and loves me so i don't die
so i never die
by
my
own
hands
Stumbling through the night
Start from the beginning
