Breaking Down Walls
Clawing the wall of this cell
I built it up brick by brick within my mind
Purgatory despair and pain
come beating at my door
Sanity has grasped hold of the insanity
the chasm within my soul slowly grows smaller
Dull eyes burn brighter and life returns to me
No more shall the pain of the past
tear away at me no more shall it bring me to my knees
I shall stand tall... stand stronger
A broken and shaking girl no more
For every time you try to hurt me
I shall break the wall down
You shall see who I am now
I am no longer afraid of who I am
I can be cold and unfeeling to you
I be the lover with a sweet heart
I can be the girl who lies peacefully still
I can be anything I want to be
Without your cruelty I can blossom and be free.
Darkness and light merge into one
The sea of confusion breaks free
For the first time in year I can see clearly
I look into the mirror and see a smile
The smile has found its way to my eyes.
It hurt me to tell you the truth
to tell you what you've done to me
It hurt me to tell you that I can't bring myself to love you
That no matter what I do... it will never be enough
but even as I write these words that you will never see
I can feel the cell breaking apart
falling free... crumbling to dust
So I guess in a way I need to thank you
You're cruelty, the pain you have inflicted on me for so long
has made me become the person I am now.
A person who has a heart to show love
a mind to share true thoughts
and a soul blessed with all the emotions I can give.
I am truly a complete being.
