Fear encloses me in this shell

Wanting to, but not able to escape from this hell

Want to just love without the fear of getting hurt

But then I realize what it would all be worth



Day after day the path only fades

Living my life as an empty charade

Wanting to feel loved yet no one cares

Lying when they all say that they will be there



Can't be saved from the monster in me

Need something to wash away all the painful memories

Dying inside, the pain is too heavy to bear

If I don't look out, Soon I won't be there



The hurt inside can't be masked by my tears

So I continue to run from all my fears

Hated by most, just want to be free

I am so tired of the life that I lead



Wonder if I were to go on, if there would be any use

Can't help but feel so darn worthless

Can't break through the chains that keep me weighed down

Afraid that beneath the ashes all my hope will drown
