Bars of Secrets

If you knew all about my haunts
Kept behind the bars of secrets
All about my foggy past
And how I hide behind my mask

To conceal the rotting scent of my soul
As my mind is a place too foul
Too full of pride, hatred and bitterness
Of things I just couldn't let pass

All these things are chained to me
Dragging me drowning in the sea
And all I feel is maddening pain
Until I come crashing and falling like rain

Down deeper in this bleak abyss
Feeling like being choked by a dark mist
In the depths of bleak despair
I can no longer be repaired

So if it was ever mentioned
That I am shattered into fractions
Would you still know me

As the blissful girl I pretend to be?
