(This is something I could do without)
Tainted eyes watch me
Torment me.
Stare inside the soul i hide so well.
Tained breath feeds my desperation.
(Every tear breaks my concentration)
Shadows confine me
Control me
Suffocating in my version of hell.
I can't fight forever
One day I will surrender.
Broken smiles and empty words leave me
Searching for the one I used to call myself.
Each day that passes is one less day to suffer.
Each child that cries is one more denied their youth.
Each smile that fades is passed onto another.
Eventually, we all learn the truth.
Tainted flesh clothes my defeated soul
(My lack of completeness -the need to be whole)
Tained thoughts consume me
Confuse me.
My mind is now my own prison cell.
I can't fight forever
One day I will surrender
Broken smiles and empty words leave me
Searching for the one I used to call myself.
Each day that passes is one less day to suffer.
Each child that cries is one more denied their youth.
Each smile that fades is passed onto another.
Eventually, we all learn the truth
