I've tried to make it through each day
There's something in my way
All the broken pieces you left behind for me
I've cut myself so much on these shards
Take all this away from me
I'm the hollow shell deflated by your teeth
I hid for so long in the room
Tried to put my pain away
I've met with resistance
Tired of banging my head on the walls I've built
I lit a candle to see
Snuffed it when I burned my hands
Stumble around through my wasteland
I take my pills to kill my pain
Drink liquid fire to ease my mind
So damned tired of looking for salvation
The only one who can save me is myself
I gave up trying a lifetime ago
You all should do the same
Don't dare to touch me
Lay hands on me and leave with a scar
Better than you have tried to bring me up
They all left with broken hopes
I think I'll stay here...in the shade...
