Mar 2013
I came home today, there was nothing left of what our family used to be.
It's been a long time coming, year after year.
It's taken every piece of my sanity.
A story in one ear, as the other screams a lie.
What do I believe, when does this die?
It's sitting in my bones, poisoning my lungs.
It's building up walls, just one more minute till I'm hung.
On a wire, from my heart. To be so taken, torn apart.
Abracadabra, alakazoo. Just say the magic words.
Don't let them know you're hurting, don't let them know it's true.
Don't let those filthy demons take control of you.
I'm going insane, I've lost my mind.
