Broken Barbie

When you look at me what do you see A pretty face or a soul brought to her knees Can you see past the pretty smiles To the pain that lies so close to the surface beneath Which mask do I wear today They’re all fake anyway Simple distractions of the true discord My life and mind is in every way A walking nightmare in Barbie tones You’ll never understand me So just leave me alone My poison will only spread my misery Tattooed to cover the scars Each has a name Carried in this blackened heart Lost and all alone, it’s best this way This journey once scary Is now old and weary So bored with the madness Welcoming chaos for sadness In this twisted hell that this Barbie knows so well I skip on through trying to find The grey in the black just for a new story to tell One that’s all mine The souls of the damned my only friends But even they are known to pretend I hear the laughter behind my back Whispers of how I’m just another Barbie hack.
