Broken and Cracked

I'm Breaking..
bent too far
Hands on my throat         
Bloody ugly scars
Lines on my wrists
Bullets in my heart
Watch the walls crumble
Feel the floor come apart
I'm Falling..
Smacking the ground
A sickening crack
A deafening sound
Took one step
And another too far
Now I've hit the pavement
And I hit it hard
I'm dying..
Bleeding through my soul
Where unfaithfulness
Has taken a fatal toll
Look up to the stars
This time should be my last
My memories start to fade
And I become the past
