Caved Under

Damaged, breaking, sad and lost and I'm left aching
And no one even knows that it kills me that the girl I once was is fading underneath
all the things people expect of who I used to be is all crashing down on top of me
why am I trying to be something that I'm not false smiles and a mask of lies trying to hide who I am inside
I've only ever wanted to be me but I'm not sure who that's supposed to be
beaten, scarred and all alone
my cold heart turned to stone
Weak from all the hits I've taken
Deep inside I'm still breaking
guess I couldn't​ heal my own wounds
and I couldn't save myself from the person I turned into
running a mile in the dark trying to stop shaking tears and memories tearing at my heart leaving me aching
so tired of fighting this when all I wanted was happiness

damaged, breaking, sad and lost and I'm left aching
And no one even knows that it kills me that the girl I once was is fading underneath
all the things people expect of who I used to be
is all crashing down on top of me

scared hearts only beat in the dark

but mine went cold and just stopped beating
