What are we living for

by katie!   Mar 14, 2005


I hide inside myself
My feelings on the shelf
I close and lock the door
What am I living for

Pain and hate and fear
Waterfalls of tears
Aching on the inside
Agony and suicide

Ignorence and prejudice
Am I living just for this
Cutting, bleeding from the vein
Falling down once again

Insults every day and night
Cannot put up a good fight
Unrequited constant love
Like an arrow from above

Lies and hate discrimination
Arms covered in mutilation
On my life I close the door
What are we all living for
