I feel transparent from the world around me
Blind to the eyes of all that see
Every act, which I selflessly perform
Has fallen passed and is washed by the storm
Unnoticed by all who call themselves friends
Terrorised by ignorance that never ends
Why do I strive to sacrifice and give
When no one seems to care that I live?
I am simply a soul washed by the shore
Stepped on, crushed, and swept to the floor
A bitter man that is left alone to wallow
For my life inside is empty and hollow
I give to everyone who matters
Yet my friendships still lie in tatters
A mess whose scream is too dark to bare
Lies naked to the hate, ready to tear
No longer can this sacrifice continue on
No more can I this heartache long
For I need to break, I need to take
From those who love me dear
I feel I need to tear and rip apart
Until they all disappear
Battered and bruised, no more of this
Please take all this pain away
I need someone to love me; I need someone now
So I can feel loved
So I can take this pain away
No matter what I do, no matter what I say
The world no longer gives me attention today
Like a hero who has fought a hundred battles
Yet still comes back lost in tatters
Barren this rejection feels to me
Wondering why no one can all this see
Plagued by a sea of loneliness
Hidden somewhere in the darkness
I am a soul left to waste
So my friends can my wounds taste
As my sacrifices lie in the dust
Full of blood in my disgust
I am drained and expired
Left to misery, alone and tired
It's hard to see all those who claim to love
Reject you and forget your love
So I shall let no more this sacrifice go on
And I will just let my heartache prolong
So that I can break, all this pain take
And give to all those dear
So that I can tear and rip apart
To make them all disappear
Battered and bruised, no more of this
Please take all this pain away
I need someone to love me; I need someone now
So I can feel loved
So I can take this pain away
