I have become everything I hate
Lord shut my mouth and open my wounds to the world so that those with their backs turned would never see my pain
Because nobody wants to hear the cries of an agonized soul and no amount of makeup would ever cover the tears that stream down my face or the scars that run down my heart
I am ashamed
I am disgusted
I am desperate
Lord let me die, please kill me- but not with my own two hands, because they have already done enough damage
Because I am so scared of the pain that I won't let anybody else try to reach me, they're too late and so am I
I am ashamed
I am disgusted
I am tired
Lord heal my porcelain spirit and my broken essence, make me the person I once was, save me
Because the cracks are showing and I cannot let the others know who I really am inside, for they need me to stay together as much as I need me to stay together
I am ashamed
I am disgusted
I am human
Lord, answer me before it's too late
Because I am far too fragile to keep trying
