"Except for me"

I see beauty in everything except me

Isn't that sad?

How I can stand here and see the flowers through your scars

But cant see the flowers on my own heart


I go home feeling like I've been shot

And the wound is still open

I go home 

Feeling like a monster


Isn't it crazy that I can say that "I Love You"

And not hold love for myself

But I got enough room to suck up your pain

And not complain about the pressure  or cracks 

boring into my skin


I have time to listen to everyone

But not listen to my own voice

Or I have the time to give everything in my body to others

And know that I'm loosing a lot of soul


I give myself to others

And not give myself me

Break my bones

And ill come back and do it again


Be here for you

and still go home feeling empty

I find the beauty in everything

Except for me
