Forever lost inside my mind; the monster I've become.
So empty, torn, and twisted now; only recognized by some.
They knew me once, I know they did, before I went insane,
Before I gave away my soul to the devils of the pain.
They broke me dear, they took my heart and told me not to cry.
I didn't cry though, I stayed strong, 'cause I'd rather lose than die.
People change dear, it's not your fault; you never let me down.
The steady flow that kept me standing, slowly let me drown.
My eyes grow red and tired now, because I chose to play with fire.
The smoke now burns within my heart, but I never trust a liar.
Society broke through my skin and left once all was gone;
An empty shell of memories, but the story still plays on.
I trusted them, I shouldn't have; they stripped me of my pride.
My sanity was taken dear, but they were never satisfied.
A pounding in my shallow head, dwindled to a stop.
And the beating deep inside my chest, began to slowly drop.
My hands grew cold and shaky, but my energy stayed strong.
I crumbled from the pressure dear, and knew it all felt wrong.
I feel so helpless dear, against my own pitied self control;
But dear, don't try to find me, for the monsters took my soul.
