This stress
I can't take
anymore
with
no doors
With no way
to escape
wood scratches
nails break
screaming
for some help
darkness finds
this a joke
the only humorous
part
I brought this
upon myself

Why?

That's what I'm asking myself.

I should have been more careful
I just thought I knew you better
I was terribly mistaken
I should have never put my trust in you
I get that I'm a fool
I didn't know you were so cruel
I need space

You surely aren't my friend
You like to play pretend
You really aren't to blame, cause I knew this all along
You call me when you need me
You tell me that you're hurting
You know that I'm too nice
You kick me when I'm down

Why really isn't the question.

A silly dreamer like me.
I should know just what you are.

The girl so full of hope
she wanted to save the world
to brighten it each day

The world was far too heavy
now she's full of pain

She suffers more each day
in this world of dismay
but she is unaware
of just how perfect she truly is

She's ready to give in
to the pain that's deep within
I guess I feel the same

She thinks that she's alone
that no one else could know
but the agony she holds
grabs me just the same

I know her feelings
I know her pain
people say the monsters hide beneath the bed
but mine, mine crawl inside my head

And every now and then
I see her teary eyes
I guess I'm not the guy to walk away
I guess I'm not the guy to give up
cause one day the world will see
the beauty that she holds

Broken and drowning, I guess I know her pain
but I can't let her give up
I can't let her give in
so I'll never walk away.

I always told you I would bleed for you. Still, I never thought that you would be the one to stick the dagger through my lung. I guess in a way, you took my breath away.

She was my kind of hopeless
Eyes tired...
No, eyes exhausted
Far past the help of coffee
Exhausted from a world bitter and cold
Exhausted from the place she's forced to call home
I don't think her hair had seen a brush in a while
It was professionally done by a pillow
A pillow with years of experience
Still, when she looked my way, I couldn't help but look away
Wish I didn't
Cause she was my kind of hopeless.
