You shout those names
And call me a sin,
As if a sin is all I hold within.
Can't you see I've tried to change
With no prevail,
I try time and time again
I only fail.
I wish you would understand,
That I'm drowning in my thoughts
My feet aren't set on dry land.
I want you to be able to see,
How conflicted the thoughts are within me.
I'm no ****.
Not even in the dark secret of the night.
I'm just a girl with a conflict
A war beneath my skin,
And all you can see is my sin,
As if you were perfect.
