Scares and Stitches

by Alone in the crowd   Aug 10, 2007


I've taken down the walls and cages that surround my heart
Now I'm bare, cold, and scared like I've said from the start
I keep them ready in case i need them to keep me together
You say you won't hurt me but it's so hard for me to believe
The pieces still fall even though they're super glued and taped together
I look at myself in disgust and strongly dislike what i see
Yet you always tell me I'm beautiful and pretty
It's still so hard, so very hard to believe
The scares and stitches that stay and never leave my newly broken heart
I remove the walls down and start to cry because it hurts
Make the wounds heal and the pain to go away
And the walls that are down might permanently stay

Yeah i told him this before he broke me and took me apart
