I try, I try
To detach, to distance
To disconnect my existence
To be unbothered by you
I try, I try
To look within, seek happiness
To stay unaffected, show resistance
To overcome your persistence
in hurting me.
But one after the other, your arrows strike
Avoiding the pain, I continue to fight
Even winning the war, I stay alive
But my skin doesn't let me forget all the scars in sight.
When we try so hard to be unaffected, but it hurts us deep down.
