I'm ripped to shreds
from toe to head
Unholy
the blood of Christ
could not save me
Shaking fingertips and scars I beg to hide
my soul buried deeply in intentions that lay in the never happening history
Marked by my misery
Write you upon my skin
You're buried in me with my blood
in the scars the tears you've caused will lay permanent
Leave me deeply in insanity's seasons
Forgotten in tears under the trees
Run away in my sleep,too where I see an angels face
awake me from my bliss when he arrives
Because he's all that's keeping me alive
metal bars lock me up tight
My breaths are fading,and I seek him in my every cry
I'm not the demon or am I
The demon that they try to save me from.
I long to wrap my arms upon salvation,
and forget all I've become
Streaking upon my face I'll lay hallow
Upon my knees,begging god to give me the eyes to see
away from reliving the marks that helped me breathe
the cuts that lead me to sanity,when they leave me upon my cell floor
I'm the prisoner,for giving my self the will to breathe once more
my breaths heavy promise me love you wont be late
They're keeping me in my cage un unified
remember love you promise you'd save me
The words would beat me so deeply
all I did was let my self go let me breathe
But I'm the criminal beat my self cause I felt so hallow
My innocence taken from me against my will
the memories are images remaining vague but still the screams echo
and no matter how many tears I cry they cant fill the whole
that'd lay deep in my soul
I met you as my breath my heart the one,
the one that loved me and saved me from everything I've become
but its to late.
I'm not the same
Criminal of my self abuse,
The reason did no wrong,its no use
I shouldn't have spoke,that's what they tell me.
They say if I listened,I would never get beat.
Its my fault he hit me,my fault he molested me.
My fault self mutilation was the only way to let my heart beat
