Broken,
Thats what I am now.
No, that's wrong.
I always have been.
I hide behind a mask,
One so clever
That even I fell for it.
Sometimes I wish it lasted...
I tried to put it in a positive light,
I tried and tried with all my might
And I fell for it.
Sometimes I wish I hadn't.
Broken,
That's what I am destined to be.
My life is nothing but a tragedy,
And it always will be.
I'm not me anymore.
Was I ever?
There seems to be somebody else,
Who resides inside me.
There's a monster pulling my strings,
And I'm perfectly fine with that.
Maybe this new mask can help me
Face this messed up world.
I'm dying on the inside,
Yet no one seems to notice.
They ignore me until I break,
Not realizing I've always been broken.
I loose it all,
But then I gain it back.
Was it worth it?
Maybe.
I'm not as naive anymore.
I can now relive my horrors,
Yet I wouldn't trade the knowledge
For anything else.
I always say there docilely,
But never again shall I do so.
My life will always be a tragedy,
But I still want it to hurt less.
I'm broken.
I'm a monster.
I'm weak.
I'm alone.
Please no more!
I can't take it!
I want it to stop!
Please end it all!
Broken,
That's all I've ever been
And all I ever will be.
I've been broken so many times...
And I fear,
That I shall break
Once more.
