dying light

they took from me my memories

they stole from me my pride

they robbed me of my innocence

they tore me up inside

 

so young they killed my will to live

but i hide the pain so well

no one hears my tear drops fall

as i suffer through this hell 

 

through days of dark and nights of rain

i feel im starting to break

i try so hard to be strong for my friends

but i don't know how much more can my heart take

 

every day i wake up and let out a sigh

my fake smile put in place

they try to see who can hurt me the most

and make the most tears flow down my face

 

from before i turned five and up till now

i have been hurt in so many ways

my life has been filled with so many lies

and to many fake "yeah im okay(s)"

 

i want so badly to try and run

but i know that this cant be

it seems to me that now a days

i will never get to be set free

 

i get so tired of feeling alone

i just want to take my life

i feel the sadness run out of my eyes

my release found in a knife

 

through the guilt and grief i feel each day

i try so hard to fight

when the darkness brings me down to my knees

i turn to my guiding light
