{What Are You Living For?}::

April 2007

Choking on words and full of regret

The pain you wish you could forget

A heart full of pain and a scar filled wrist

You never knew life woudl take a painful twist



No one to hear your cries and your pleas

They all treat you like you are a disease

They shut you out, they never listen

Would they search for you if you were missing



Not a soul you can go to when you feel hurt and confused

Nobody gives a shit if you are bruised

No one ever said your dreams could come true

You feel so worthless because they never told you that you could do anything you set your mind to



You only heard their yelling

You were victim to all the cursing

Even when it was not meant for you

You had to deal with all the damage they put you through



Can't put your heart out there

You don't dare take the risk

Afraid of being hurt even more

You continue, wondering what you are living for



All the guys fed you lies to believe

They said you were pretty but you were so naive

Many times you feel under their spell

Walking your way into hell



At first things seem so fine

He says, "Your heart belongs to me"

and you reply, " and your heart is mine"

But foolish girl.....If only you could really see...



After a while you get suspicious, they start acting strange

You wonder why all of a sudden they change

Is it them or is it you

How do you fix this, what can you do



It never changes...the story always ends the same

Tired of this shit, you ponder who's to blame

This isnt a game you want to play

Sick of this so called love thing ending this way



Why do you believe them when they treat you like a queen

You are just another girl lost in the scene

It never changes, no...

Never changes no matter how far you dare go



You wish that you could go back to being a child

When you were happy, free and wild

No one could hurt you or break your heart

Nothing was ever strong enough to tear you apart



What happened to you, you became so fragile

You shatter in a million pieces everytime love says goodbye

What are you living for ...

Is it just a lie...



You would take it back, every ' I Love You'

The words that ruined your life

Wishing they would have never been said

Maybe then you could have stayed away from the knife

But as you notice all your scars and watch them grow more and more

You wonder what in the world you are living for...

Always in longer states of depression, ever do I wonder. My parents wonder why they are the last to know things...they don't listen at all, just critize, like I need that when I am down and out, the weakest. I hate that so much. Only really, my friend listens. I had another friend, but he's a predictor so...

I like this lots
