I'll scratch at my skin
to take my mind off
this absence we've created.
and these words will blur together,
like the veins in my arm.
Im tired of feeling so alone.
You're the difference between
Hell and Home.

I told you to kiss me
until I felt something, anything.
And you did,
and it turns out
you taste a lot
like happiness.

you used to get mad at me
because I didn't think I was pretty
and i'd get mad at you
for telling me that I was

is there a special rule book, that tells you how to be?
All the right things to say and do, that they have and not me?

Slowly I am wothering, a flower deprived of sun.
Longing to belong to, somehwere or someone.

I wonder why god put me here, when clearly I don't belong.
Or else they wouldn't send us away, I guess we can't get along.

Nobody would even notice, if I just went away.
Cause' I'm not fit for this place called earth, and I cannot stand to stay.

You can cry, but they won't take sympathy
because you're less than human

You can try to run, but they'll just **** you quicker
because you're barely human

And I can pray to God that they spare my life, but not even God can stop them
because, I guess, I'm not even human*

I'm not sure how to say this,
because love is such a big word.
but it's in you're eyes, it's in every kiss,
it's in all your corny jokes I've heard.

the way you look at me, eyes all wide
or the way your smile tilts on it's side
see all these little things
create these feelings I just can't hide

and you might not understand it
just quite the way I do
but I'll come right out and say it
I think I'm in love with you.

"I'm fine." is her response.
but, she isn't. she's just hoping to convince herself that she is, when she smiles and tells them she's fine. Just to ease her little mind, she's puts on a mask. She folds up all of her problems and disappointments and shoves them away. Just for the day. Thinking maybe, just for now, she could be happy. Thinking if she forces that fake smile, it would one day become genuine. A real smile. A genuinely happy smile. That's all she ever wanted. But the thing is, nobody knows. Nobody knows who she is inside, or how hard it is for her.  Not her parents, not her best friend. Because she wears a disguise.  She hides it oh so well, sometimes she herself can't tell. And because if they knew, they'd say she's exaggerating. She wants attention. She's just having a bad day. Well the bad day turned into a bad night. A bad week. A bad month. A bad year. But she doesn't want a bad life. She doesn't try to make herself miserable. She tries really hard to be happy. Sometimes too hard. She's learned not to expect anything from anyone, because with great expectation comes great disappointment. So much disappointment. Enough to make her sadness turn into emptiness. And she would rather be sad than empty.

I'm sorry that I was never good enough
I'm sorry that picking her over me was tough

I'm sorry that when you broke me my shattered pieces cut you
I'm sorry that I will never be able to trust you

I'm sorry for all the things I did that led you to believe you loved me
I'm sorry that you realized you didn't and that now you're hopelessly set free

And I would like to apologize
For the wondering devil in your eyes
Who wants to be free
But keeps blaming me for your misery

I am not the one who causes you pain
And I won't be the one screaming your name
When you need someone who loved you
To come to the rescue

You gave up on me for her
And put her on a pedestal
you gave her the half of your heart
I begged to see from the very start

I'm sorry
That I was never good enough
I'm sorry
That picking her over me was tough
