Four pale walls cage her Colorless and uninspiring Leaving a taste so bitter Breathe If she leaves now she'll feel ashamed But if she resides any longer she may not make it Her mind races Her skin crawls up and down her arms Perfection has become perfect hell Darkened by the mask she leads to believe is herself Images of shadows in the distance dance by Invading a vessel that is nothing more than helpless Breathe Her body feels as if it is shaking from the inside She is to weak to stand, to weak to fight She feels faint, thin as a skeleton she collapses onto a bed so familiar But so far from home His face imprinted in the back of her mind Her heart quickens The pills slowly slip down her parched throat Breathe She dreams to escape She dreams to be close to him She can still feel his touch though he is long gone The color in her face has diminished Her soul needs to be filled once again His smile awakens the song in her heart The twinkle in her eye His kiss restores her His eyes keep her warm on the nights she feels she will freeze With him... She can Breathe

Breathe
Four pale walls cage her Colorless and uninspiring Leaving a taste so bitter Breathe If she leaves now she'll feel ashamed But if she resides any longer she may not make it Her mind races Her skin crawls up and down her arms Perfection has become perfect hell Darkened by the mask she leads to believe is herself Images of shadows in the distance dance by Invading a vessel that is nothing more than helpless Breathe Her body feels as if it is shaking from the inside She is to weak to stand, to weak to fight She feels faint, thin as a skeleton she collapses onto a bed so familiar But so far from home His face imprinted in the back of her mind Her heart quickens The pills slowly slip down her parched throat Breathe She dreams to escape She dreams to be close to him She can still feel his touch though he is long gone The color in her face has diminished Her soul needs to be filled once again His smile awakens the song in her heart The twinkle in her eye His kiss restores her His eyes keep her warm on the nights she feels she will freeze With him...
