Fly Away

I don't know where I went wrong

Or how I got where I am

But, I'm here now

Here to stay

It's not like I want to be here

I hate it here

But, this is who I am

I'll never understand why I feel so much pain

But, it's there

Eating me alive

There's something inside of me

Something I can't escape

Feeding me lie by lie

It's a voice I hear with every step I make

With every breath I take

The voice that people hear when I speak

I'm not good enough

I'm not pretty enough

I'm not a thing

Nothing is who I am

Numb is all I feel

I hear it everyday

I'm trying so hard to run away

To feel real again

I watch my own blood drip to the floor

I feel alive, but it's only for a moment

Scars are left ,just so I can feel

I look back to assure myself I'm here

Such a pleasuring reassurance

Why don't I feel like everyone else?

It's like I'm living a nightmare

I pray to just wake up in my bed

All my pain swept away

I want to be me again

Not this heartless monster I've become

Somebody, please spare me a pair of wings

I want to fly away

Fly away from this cage of skin I'm living in

It's hell in here

Somebody, please, help me escape
