since she was 11
she knew
being abused isn't a punishment
it's a birthright

Lifes not fair to us
we live each day waiting till the night
so that the dark can hid
our insecurities

Lifes not fair to us
because the reasons to die
out way the reasons to live
we live on the edge
and each night we dig our nails in
in an effort to hang on

Lifes not fair to us
each morning we wake up trying to hid who we are
with makeup
each day we agree to whatever they say
and we fear the day we will be alone
because following is the only thing we have ever known


Lifes not fair to us
I cant stop the words before I speak
my fist seem to have a mind of thier own
and i turn for help
but im all alont
all the kids it hits can run away
but i cant drown out the monster inside of

Lifes not fair to us
We turn for help and everyone turns away
so we search for love in the wrong place
and people call us a disgrace
tell there children to look away

Lifes not fair to us
but all we are trying to do is replace
the love no one ever gave

My whole life i hid behind the curtain of lies
so i can hide from the real me
but as i hid i got rug burn
from regret, depression and hate
irritating my skin from the curtains
I close my eyes to forget it all
and as the burn infected me
all people could see was the scars
so i went deeper and deeper into the curtains
and now i cant find a way out
because this darkness of suicidal thoughts
is coming in from all directions
and i dont know how to stop the burns
so i keep running deeper and deeper
then i realize i was falling apart
the rash had started to infect my bones
and was decomposing my ability to feel
to love
the deeper i ran the more of me i lost
then you came a long
you told me to come out
that it was okay
that you didn't care if i had burns
but i pushed you away
I didn't want you to follow me into the abyss
I cared about you to much
for you to get lost like this
all you said was
**open your eyes
your not in an abyss
your just hiding behind the curtain

Sometimes on the right side
You still want the left to be
*a reality

You cut open trees
For the broken rings
To determan age
Did you ever stop to think the rings are self inflicted?
That age has nothing to do with it?
