SHAKiNG LiKE A LEAF
HEART RACiNG LiKE iM TRYiNG TO WiN
MY BRAiN GOES BLANK
iM ABOUT TO COMMiT A SiN
i PUT THE KNiEF
RiGHT ON MY ViEN
FROM MY WRiST TO MY ELBOW
iM STARTiNG TO FEEL THE PAiN
iT STiNGS iN A GOOD WAY
iM COVERED iN SWEAT
THiNKiNG ABOUT MY LiFE
WONDERiNG iF iTS OVER YET
BLOOD iS POURiNG
COMPLETELY COVERiNG THE FLOOR
THiS RED OCEAN
iS BREAKiNG THROUGH THE CRACKS UNDER THE DOOR
i LAY ON THE GROUND
AS i CLOSE MY EYES
WiTH A REAL SMiLE
STARTiNG TO SAY MY GOODBYES
EVERYTHiNGS GETTiNG DARK
MY HEART STARTS TO BEAT SLOW
THE END iS NEAR
AND ALL MY MEMORiES PLAY BACK LiKE A SHOW
GETTiNG ABUSED AS A LiTTLE GiRL
KiCKED AND HiT iN THE FACE
THEN BEiNG RAPED DAiLY
AND FEELiNG LiKE A TOTAL WASTE OF SPACE
FLUNKiNG OUT OF SCHOOL
UNTiL i FiNALLY DROP OUT
HAViNG MY DAD CALL ME A FAiLURE
AND BELiEViNG HiM WiTHOUT A DOUBT
i WAS TOLD iD NEVER BE GOOD ENOUGH
AND THAT i WAS A MiSTAKE
MY PARENTS PRAYED AFTER THEY PUT ME TO BED
THAT iD NEVER WAKE
MY WHOLE LiFE
i FELT LiKE i DONT BELONG
MARTiNA MCBRiDE
WROTE A SONG
CONCRETE ANGEL
SHE WROTE iT ABOUT ME
TOO BAD ABUSED
WASNT THE ONLY THiNG WRONG WiTH ME
iM MENTALLY DESTROYED
i DONT HAVE ONE SANE THOUGHT
iM COMPLETELY DAMAGED
iTS LiKE A YUMMY FRUiT THAT STARTS TO ROT
AFTER THE BRUiSES
iTS JUST NO GOOD
iM MENTALLY BRUiSED
AND MiSUNDERSTOOD
i DONT CUT AND WANT TO DiE FOR ATTENTiON
i DO iT FOR THE PAiN
i DO iT HOPiNG ONE DAY
i WONT HAVE TO CRY ONLY iN THE RAiN
i WANT TO BE STRONG ENOUGH
TO SHOW MY TEARS
i WANT TO BREAK DOWN THESE WALLS
AND STOP HiDiNG FROM MY FEARS
BUT EVEN MY COUNSLER COULDNT HELP ME
SHE TAUGHT ME HOW TO DiE
SHOWED ME ALL THE WAYS i COULD DO iT
JUST HOPiNG iD TRY
MY LiFE HAS BEEN HARD
NO ONES BEEN ON MY SiDE
iM NOT SAYiNG iM WEAK
BUT i GUESS i WASNT STRONG ENOUGH TO STAY ALiVE
