A Silent Seduction And The Fallout

by RaInYDaYze   Oct 15, 2004


I'm the girl you always saw but never knew
Dark hair, troubled eyes, and those beautiful scars
Embedded deep into the skin of my wrists
Silent and seemingly fragile
You were seduced by my sadness
You liked how helpless i was
I radiated loneliness and pain
You wanted to know all the things that made me hurt
What caused a dark angel to fall and break?
I'm the girl crying in the corner
Afraid to ask you for a second glance
Pleading with my heart to stop it's breaking
Wishing i was in your arms
Wishing you noticed me
I'm the girl with the tear stained eyes
The one you fell in love with
So afraid that i will lose you
Letting go of all my defenses
Losing myself in your words
And promises to fix me
You saw the scars and you didn't leave
Even when fresh ones appeared day after day
I'm the girl who smiles when she is falling apart
I tell you I'm OK and then lock myself in my room
And turn to the knife, metallic Saviour
I know it breaks your heart every time i cut
But all my reasons to live have been forgotten
Now that you have gone away
I'm the girl that's been betrayed
The one you abandoned, do you remember?
You can't save me from my own dark desires
When you aren't even here to stop my tears.
