Taught to find our self worth
In pain we're fed from birth
Fall in line, and wait your turn
Patiently to burn
I watch the ones I love stumble and falter
Crushed underneath the weight of hardship they fought for
Why would you want this hollow existence?
We are not the same
I hide from the pain you embrace
Your life has been consumed by hate
You can hide, but your wounds won't keep you safe from harm
Your brittle bones would snap in the harshest cold
There is no way to escape
Pain you've learned to believe you deserve
I learned to cope in ways you never had to
I hope you never know what it's like to lose
Everything you cherish
All reduced to ash
I am trapped inside
A life of anguish
