Now tell me when did the butterflies leave your life
When did the rainbow leave your sky
Why did it feel like the ocean was edging up to close and wanted to swallow and drown you
When did the leafs leave no sound
So when did the dark swallow you moon
The only source of light you had
When did stars collide and messed up your sky
Tell me are you losing your mind
Let's keep it our little secret
Maybe it'll be alright

When was the last time you cracked a smile
Or made a joke?
Did you forget that laughter is the best medicine
Don't worry I've lost it too
Everything feels the same every memory fades
Over time people won't recognize you, the old you or maybe they didn't know you at all
Your scars fades, you mind fades even the piece of love you have suffocates and dies

Bones and smoke
Graves and stones
Your world were made of life
Now it will suffice

As Lonely as the moon in the dark sky
I remember my mother singing me a lullaby
I had to leave my past behind in the shadows
My fears kept chasing me into the arms of nowhere  
I sit on the cold blood stained floor
Too many emotions and it took a toll
Watching it dripping, dripping and it driving me mad
Yet this pain that I feel, please try to tell me its not real
She had her whole life filled with hopes and dreams...now she's only left with these memories and disbelief
Its you who cries yourself to sleep
Hoping you won't feel a thing
Maybe someday this will all be just a memory
But her heart sunk what if she never makes it till then
She's staring at the ceiling all in vain, she's already thinking to putting a end to this pain
Thinking how dead you feel inside
Broken or bent
Scratches or dents
We are all addicted to something that takes away the pain
What makes us feel alive
you will be the reason for your own demise

I fell like snow and melted into a puddle of my own despair
Thorns around my heart
Protecting myself from the start
And you came around slowly removing the thorns without my knowledge
I'm knee deep in my despair
You held your hand out and showed me the shore I gave you everything more than I ever did before
You crashed through my walls
Just as I was about to give my all
You pushed me aside and walked away
Leaving space for all the cold to dwell inside my soul
Thorns blew in and all I see was the darkness creeping in
Oh sweet pain my fellow friend you left for a while when he came in
He left and you came
Breaking my fall for everything
I feel nothing not a single thing
Melancholy and nostalgia walking hand in hand

The broken kids know how to love
Cause we're empty most of the time
And when something good comes along
We love with all we have
We give all we have
Wanna fill that empty feeling with some love
Happiness only comes once in a while
We try to smile through the tears
Make people believe we have no fears
Razors, pills even diets doesn't help
We scream into our pillows "why does this have to be me"
Girls hate their body's they're made believe if you're not a size zero you aren't pretty
Guys have feelings and they take it out on their wrist
They even use diets pills secretly
We stand in the rain hoping to meet them
We scream at the top our lungs hoping they'd hear our pain
They comfort us through the pain
Cause they don't judge, they always understand
Music is the anthem for broken kids
Bands are our hope
We live to someday meet them
Our idols save us
Not our parents sometimes not our friends
We believe in music cause music is our religion

You knock me down
Down down down
to the ground
you buried me under the layers of your concrete heart
You broke me
Nothing hurts like a heart and I still struggle to get out, I try to push I try to scratch even my screaming doesn't help
Doesn't it bother you that I cry even my tears full up like a river
Sometimes I wish you'd drown in it
What we had was everything to me
Every kiss every touch every word touched my heart
Nobody is perfect and that's what I forgot
I thought you were sent from heaven like some kind of God

I try to push I try to scratch even my screaming doesn't help
These words you say to break me down
Hits me like a ton of bricks
I hate the mirror I hate myself
My heart is a traitor and my head is hell

All I wanted was you to understand
That I'm not made of stone
You can't just break me down
this is our goodbye
You said it a long time ago
Its my turn time to go
OldSoul Sep 2013
Let me go
Unwrap your hands from mine
Leave me alone
To die in my misery
I hate what I've become
Someone I don't know
The mirror sees someone unknown
And I don't even wanna know her
I hurt the people the closest to me
And I'm sorry,I don't know how to stop
Everything I touch dies
So don't touch me
Don't let me near you
Push me away
Hate me so I won't come back
I'm sinking into a hole and there's no coming back
I lack the love you want
I'm not that girl anymore
I barely read my bible
I barely do anything
I'm just a empty shell of who I used to be
I'm sorry I disappoint you so much
I'm sorry for the hurt I've caused
My prayers go unanswered
God has turned his back
My love is lost
And I'm cold
I'm broken
I'm just a statue staring at nothing
Please just go
Don't ever let me know you once cared

You say your problems don't matter cause some people have it worse
Its like saying you can't be happy cause some people have it better
It doesn't make sense
You'll destroy yourself in the end
Trying to cover them scars and them tears
I can see your eyes begging for a escape
You want someone to ask if you're okay but they don't want to, they're scared you'll spill the beans and they might not like what they're hearing
So talk to me baby
I wanna help
I wanna make you feel loved
That smile you're hiding it shines like stars
Those scars I have them too
Those self hate I had it too
The voices? I tried to silence them with a blade
It didn't work
Only the doctor promised me it will take work
And here I am
Trying to help you because I love you so much and I don't wanna see you go down the same road as me
So take my hand and let's walk to the light
