I hate this fear inside me
It's eating me alive
Gotta be silent when I wanna run and hide

With every blow you give me I feel even less
A puppet going through the motions, numb, useless

I am floating, lifeless and alone
In this prison that should have been my home

Dragging me down, I crawl on the floor
Please let there be no more

And I can see the darkness slowly creeping
Tearing my soul as I lie broken weeping

Each day I think i'm done, but another one always comes
My tears fall silently in the hell you spun

I'm so damaged but I wont be undone
Not by this, not by anyone.
