Listening to: Nickelback - Too Bad
Feeling: contemplative
To anger and sorrow
on one knee you fall
Wondering why
you exist at all
This futile prison
drives you insane
Sick of the questions
so tired of shame
Bricks scath your back
as you're chained to the wall
Screaming in pain
amidst the squall
Blood burns your skin
Its acid inscribes
Scars through your soul
where bliss used to lie
Steadily losing
to everything
Slavery or death
the question remains
How do you know
just how to escape
The facade you put up
is fading and fake
They don't see where it rains
where your time will run out
The fact that's unwanted
You know without doubt
Lightning cracks
but no one can hear
Save for you
Choking on tears
Glad most are free from
where now you reside
That those near are far
from the monster inside...
I don't know how long
I can stand being here.
At times I'd rather
disappear
Though no matter what happens
one thing is clear:
I know I must always
perservere.
Why fight a battle
only to lose?
The verdict is always
up to you.
It's never easy
not to die there
Yet this time I know
I can beat the despair.
It's such hard work
for a little girl
One who supposedly
has the world.
I'm tortured,
troubled,
tainted,
untamed.
Yet this "poor little rich girl"
shall not be slain.
