THE PROMISE...
My pain rips into my chest and tares at my heart.
Every heartbeat is only necessary for life,
My heart is numb to everything else.
...

DAMAGED...
I can't handle my anger anymore.
It's tearing my relationships apart.
I keep pushing people away, in a effort to protect them.
...

I'm Done...
Take your empty words and promises and walk out the door,
I'm so done with this, and I'm done with you.
Everything you said was bullshit
...

If you look in my eyes you'll see a little girl
When you look at my smile, you'll see that nothings wrong.
.................
That is exactly what I want you to think
...

When I'm with you, I revert back to who I used to be.
The girl who was happy, before she was destroyed; before she had to hide herself.
And I tried to hide it from you, like I do to everybody else,
but somehow you knew my secret
