My fingers are ****** from clawing away At this tomb that you built, my own grave. You buried me in my own hatred, self doubt And now I'm killing myself trying to get out. ***** ugly, worthless, nothing." You said As you bashed me until I was all but dead. Then you kicked me hard down into this hole, And I mourned all the self worth that you stole. But I'm almost to the surface now, so close, What's left of me now more resembles a ghost. I've come this far and I'm not giving in, I'll regain what you tore from me with a ******* grin.

Regaining Strength
My fingers are ****** from clawing away At this tomb that you built, my own grave. You buried me in my own hatred, self doubt And now I'm killing myself trying to get out. ***** ugly, worthless, nothing." You said As you bashed me until I was all but dead. Then you kicked me hard down into this hole, And I mourned all the self worth that you stole. But I'm almost to the surface now, so close, What's left of me now more resembles a ghost. I've come this far and I'm not giving in, I'll regain what you tore from me with a ******* grin.
