Thank you for breaking me When I was so young For shattering my mind As though there was nothing else to be done For making me conceal Open wounds that needed treating For making me hate That my heart was even beating Thank you for causing so much pain I hope you've lost more than what you've gained Sinking your jaw into my untouched skin Marvel at what you've made, at the beast within Wash me in nightmares Sink me in heartache Burn all I have Be my secret mistake Thank you for causing me to wish for a gun To see knifes as the friendly ones For the constant lying that comes from abuse A crafted mask I've learned to misuse Thank you for pulling apart every bit of my soul So the next time I love, I'll never feel whole For morphing my hands into weak, shaking fragments For creating a body in need of enhancement Thank you for blowing a gap in my life Between everyone who cares and those that want a fight For causing every touch to be a horrendous memory For making childhood seem like an unneeded commodity Take a look, straight in the eyes At what you've created A severed soul, always dictated I hope you're proud of the mess you made You, a monster of a man And I, your endured slave
