Trapped

by Leslie   Nov 18, 2005


Trapped in world of lies
Hiding from myself
All I every do is cry
Hiding from the truth

In the corner of my room
Where I hide with a blade
Condemned to this living hell
Just a small scratch to start

It doesnt bleed
So deeper they get
My anger builds
And the more I cry

I breathe heavier
I cry more
I hate myself more
I cut deeper

Blood trickling down my hand
Blood keeps coming
I drop the blade to the floor
What have I done?

Wipe away the tears
Pretend everythingâ??s fine
Lie to myself more and more
It will be ok

Hide the cuts and scars
Theyre not for you to see
Theyre a reminder of this pain
Forever to be remembered

Take a deep breath
Prepare myself for whats to come
More lies, more hiding from the truth
For now, Ill keep on going as I have many times

Just keep on going in this endless cycle,
Keep crying and lying
All I want is a way out, a way out for good.
No More, No More, I cant take it anymore!
