Broken Apart

By nobody-in_the_darkness

The lies everyone speaks
The pressure everyone puts on me
The things that I do
To get attention from you
Can't any one see
I hide behind a mask
Hoping that no one will ask
What about my past?
I cut to escape this pain
I take my hapieness in the form of a pill
I live day by day
Wishing that you only knew
What really went on inside my head
Now im gone
Shut up in a spulchure
My own little place
But even in death I have no peace
My tell-tale heart keeps beating on
But my secrets it will keep
As I lie here
In a new form
I watch my soul drift away
and wish only that i could have given my family one last
" I love you and a kiss good-bye."
