Held Together by a Thread
I am exhausted
Life has taken my glass and drained me dry
Everything in me is dropping
My drive, my mind, myself
Somehow I wake up each morning
Forcing the seas to part
Allowing light to enter
But stopping it from reaching my heart
No one knows that I've died inside
My face being filled with life
The makeup and clothes help me
To paint a picture of lies
It feels like I'm running on autopilot
Moving without trying
The girl that you see
That makes you all laugh
Has already lost the fight
Everyday I force myself to rise
And slowly become another
My true shrivled self
Crawls up inside a meatsuit
The scared and tattered meatsuit
Held together by a thread
One more snip here and there
Then she'll truly be dead
