Let Me Be



It hurt when I cried

when my eyes bled

with tears that dried

as the thoughts fled

from the prison of my mind

and I know I can’t find

a place to escape

be it any landscape

I don’t want anyone to know

that I’m a living nightmare,

a walking disaster, don’t care,

walk away, this is a new low


when wounds become scars

I’ll find joy in the stars

and the moon might free me

of this feeling, so let me be

and find me when I’m fine

Because this fight is mine

to suffer, I want you to leave

so, I know I’m still strong

in your eyes, I’ve done no wrong

nor lies, please believe

And find me when I’m smiling

that’s whom you want to last

So don’t look for me, I’m hiding

from the terrors of my past


Is this a phase or a getaway?

the more I try to runaway

I keep realizing it’s a part

of me and everything I beheart

And there’s only one way I see

for the reign of this feeling to cease

I waited until the blood turned black

it’s too late, there’s no turning back

vision blurred, feelings corrupt

now let me just give up.
