Blood on my hands

By ComeLittleLeaves

I long for the days of hope
the days of brightness and fun
of dancing in the rain
and smiling at the sun

I long for you to hold me
and wish for everyday
to have again what once we had
but now you've pulled away

I know the fault is mine
there's no one else to blame
for the pain I've caused you
I deserve to feel ashamed

I'm sorry that I hurt you
that was never in my plans
I have come to recognize
the blood is on my hands

Further down into the dark
my feet they carry me
into the dungeon of despairs
for the tortured soul that's me

What you see cannot be real
there is no beauty here
just a fragment of a girl
swallowed up be her fear
