Keep Myself Together

These wounds on my heart
Leave graffiti on my soul
It's no wonder I don't listen
Or do what I'm told

This rebellious soul is beating me
I can't suppress this demon inside
So instead of setting myself free
I close myself and hide

Look at what you've done
Are you proud of yourself now?
Step back and gaze upon your monster
The one you created from hate

Pick out my heart
It's almost gone forever
So hard to live my life
Trying to keep myself together

You paint my soul black
You strangle my every breath
Can't believe I trusted you
You made such a mess

Administer your death kiss
Lie to my face
Stab me in the heart
And leave without a trace

Grasping for breath
So hard to breathe
You've taken everything I had
And everything you do
Just takes so much out of me
