losing sight of reality
these drunken stupors
control these minds
and control my futures
he told me once to make mistakes so you learn from them
but I just can't stop living in regret
in regret of the past
in regret of all of the terrible things I have done
bruises all over my body
reminders of the damage that has been done
once such an innocent girl
now everything has overcome
but when people say her name
it is not the innocent girl brought to their attention
no- it is the identity that she has become
they are the labels tied to her
for the future
because of the things she has done
yet nobody will save her
just leave her out of sight
out of mind
she is the one going insane
yet she is the same person/ she still bears the same name
she can change
but she cannot rewrite the past
the past must remain completed and done
*but as he once said
the past does not define you
so stand up once again from the fall
stand up stronger
perhaps the scars will never fade
but the memories of the inflicted pain
can be replaced
then you will be a new person
because of the things you have faced*
come back to reality
and start living
