You burst through the door
Screaming and yelling at me
What did I do this time
Please don't hurt me daddy
...
Shut your mouth and listen to what I have to say,
I'm going to take you back to that one specific day.
I was laying in bed alone while listening to you and him talk on the phone.
You said, 'Well if they have the money I don't see why not,
...
I'm so tired of this empty feeling
I'm so tired of being alone
I lay here staring at the ceiling
Waiting by the phone
...
You can stand there and smile you can sit there and laugh
but you can't trick me I know it's a mask
You're trying to lie to me and everyone else
but why is it that you're lying to yourself?
...
I have a survivalist mentality
That's a part of who I am and it won't go away
Sometimes I take a break from reality
Dreaming bigger things than what is given to me today
...
Do you know what it feels like to be left behind?
Losing everyone around you in such little time.
I try not to worry since they're left in the past,
...
Hard to breathe
Weird to touch
Acting normal
Think too much
...
I don't know why I feel this way.
I never asked for pain, tears, or suffering.
I was normal at one point in life.
I was full of smiles, laughter, and happiness.
...
They dig into your flesh
with piercing daggers of
indignation
