Under These Imperfections

by Stef   Jan 8, 2005


With a final tear I'll shed my skin
Leave behind my scars and my cuts
My weaknesses so cleary displayed.
I'll leave behind this mask I wear
And show this world the real girl
Who lives under these imperfections.

A flawed soul that lives inside these walls
Afraid to step into the spotlight
For fear of being judged and rejected.
Hidden beyond the lies and betrayal
My true self sits, waiting to escape
From this hell I've created.

A lonely heart with a broken mind
Lost in a sea of rage and fury
Is patiently lying still, until the day
When it will break these chains of depression.
No longer will I bury myself, for I feel restless
To see this world I've refused.

With a final cut I'll shed my skin
And leave behind this cold world
I was too scared to venture into alone.
I'll leave behind this mask I wear
And reveal this shattered girl I am
Who died to show the world her pain.
