My memories make me wince
Push it away you had me convinced
But it all comes out in the blink of an eye
Can you see the pain reflected in my eyes
I'm tired of feeling weak inside
My soul dies every day
Because the pain inside refuses to go away
Why did this have to happen?
Why couldn't my past have stayed a phantom?
Beaten down into submission
Unable to ignore~ I'm  forced to listen
Pain I now know all too well
I can't claw my way out of hell
A deep hidden fear of darkness and sleep
Little girl rocks, shakes and then weeps
The ghosts they visit me in my dreams
I awake to the sound of my own silent screams
