Falling Until I Hit Rock Bottom

Like a dark seed 

blooming in the night.

The warnings I did not heed,

everyone thought it was such an awful fright!

 

Can I help but want to fight

a choice not my own?

Controlling everything in my life

the addiction you must have shown.

 

So why not a little freedom

to let out all my feelings.

I don't want to be part of your kingdom,

these scars are my kind of healing.

 

I never meant to go this far

my life, I took it all in vain !

No one knew how hard

it was to stay sane.

 

The scars, my silent scream

but no one heard.

How they wish it was a dream

one that would have never occured.

 

The wind swaying me in the tree

the only way out it seemed.

Was this meant to be ?

I nevered screamed.

 

If only I had someone

to look me in the eyes.

To erase what I had become,

to see beneath the half-hearted lies.

 

Maybe I wouldn't have died

with this heart broken in my chest 

I never wanted to hide,

my love they did oppressed.
