What am I so afraid of?

It's already over

I'll stop singing my song

This isn't beautiful

This is only me

Worthless

aren't we all?

I want you to push me down

I want you to crush me down

Tear me down

Break me down

I want you to let me down

Make me fall in love

with you again

and lead me straight

to Hell where I belong

I've been there before

and I have the scars

to prove it

but they won't bleed

anymore

and I try

and I scratch

and I tear

and I rip

and I cut

and I wait for the blood

to run down my face

but there's just dead flesh

under my fingernails

and the stench of decay

and I'd kill myself to feel

your touch again

Your hands so rough

around my neck

Bury me alive

don't forget to

kiss me goodnight

and leave the frozen flowers

on my grave

Burn me alive

until I'm nothing

Clawing at my hair

my face

my eyes

the ground

beneath your feet

Because you are my soul

and I am just an

empty shell

lying naked

in a darkened bedroom

lifeless on the floor
