I used too

I used to be able to see
Before someone gouged my eyes
Before everything turned black
I used to be able to cry
I used to be able to taste
Before my tongue was cut out
Before everything was the same
I used to be able to make sounds
I used to be able to talk
Before my mouth was sewn shut
Before I was silenced
I used to never give up
I used to be able to hear
Before I went deaf
Before I had no fears
Before I was dead
I used to care
Before someone stole my soul and I died
Before I gave up
I used to apologize
I used to live to live
Now I dont live at all
I used to have a heart
Before it fell apart
Before I cried
Before I gave up
And before I died
