I feel empty and alone
I've lost myself
My heart turned to stone
So much is spinning inside my head
Fear, anger, loathing and dread
I've kept it inside
Kept it to myself
When all I need
Is to scream it out
But no one cares
I never get a second thought
So I just keep it to myself
With these emotions
I've always fought
Sick to my stomach everyday
Thinking of all
That is coming my way
Your anger, my pain
Feeling so insignificant
And small every time
I'm not a criminal
You can't blame me for any crime
I've served my sentence
And it was the hardest hill
I've ever had to climb
Even though I've let it go
My stomach lurches
And the pain still shows
The scars inside of me betray
The hold you have on me
To this very day
Why can't you see
What you've done to me
And let me go
So I can fly free
Away from you
Then maybe you could see
That this is my life
And this is my final plea.
