Never Wanted it to be

Mother, father, look close, you might see;
See past the fake beauty that I often pretend to be.

Look close, but be careful; fear here is key
I never wanted to hurt you, only me, can't you see?

I know you can't tell, or begin to understand,
But please, for now, can you just hold my hand

It's dark and I'm scared, I don't know what I've become
My demons are here and there's always more than one

I never wanted it to be this way;
But the demons called and they wanted to play
