Tormented Fall

By PaperPromises

Alone in this forsaken doom I myself have created
I fall to the floor covered in my own crimson disgrace
Knowing this isn't the last time, I can't continue to fake it
Ashamed and I can't bare to look into my own face.

Vulnerable and I feel so undiscovered and naked
Isn't there some way I can become invisible to you all?
Wondering how long before once more my skin is breaking
Til once more I give in to another painful tormented fall.

How can you not look in my eyes and see all this going on
Aren't you as repulsed at me as I am?
How can you pretend its all right when it couldn't get more wrong
Could it be you just don't understand?

If you're waiting for me to run to you and open up
You'll soon find that you're without luck
Sorry I can't be more for you
It'll hurt..
But I'll understand if you leave too...
