I've been beaten
I've been bruised
I've been eaten
I've been used

I was cremated
I have cried
I was sedated
I have died

I have starved
I have lost dreams
I was never carved
Into trees

I am in debt
I have been rushed
Like an insect
I have been crushed

I have wiped out
I've been let down
I have had doubt
I am lost and found

But just like changing the channel
Does not change the weather
I have been loved
And that made me better

Brused and beaten
Battered and bashed
This is how I look every day
Nobody cares and nobody notices
I cry
my tears are pain as they roll down my face
I walk
Every step as gentle as can be
I looked to you and you were gone
Out of sight
I can't trust
I don't rely on anyone but myself
I fight and I lash
Just to be set free
Away from the pain
Away from the misery
Only to give up hope
