As We Metamorphose

When you find the pain helps you cope Fear not, you may still survive Deep within hides a beam of hope Take a breath and slowly revive The things that don't kill you Don't always make you stronger The wounds run deep and true The pain a way for you to conquer The scars heal and slowly fade But the agony will always remain The edged blade a bittersweet trade A reminder of the way you went insane Their pitying eyes haunt my every move The prying glances pierce through my mask I am sure they care and worry for me But why can’t they just… let me be?
