Alone

I'm worthless and miserably broken
I wish I knew how you could see beauty in this face
But when I look in the mirror all I see is a hideous disgrace
I'll beat myself and use these bruises as a mask
Away from the world I will hide
Close my heart and lock these secrets deep inside

I'm the biggest failure you've ever known
And you don't know what to do
Can you hold my hand and help me make it through?

You're the only thing I've ever known
So I'm begging you now not to let this go
Your words will band aid the scars that show

Your presence leaves me with something fierce
And I'm left bleeding from the wrist
My head is thinking of memories that will never exist

My self loathing burdens all around me
I lift my head one empty day
To find I am alone
