Bleed Me Dry

as i sit in this cell surrounded by four walls covered in gray paint
i wonder to myself where did my life go wrong

could i of ended up different if i was never violated
would i be a better person if you never exixsted

the way i think the way i act the way i talk 
the way i walk the way i dress the way i cut off my hair

i kiss with my eyes open just to see whats going on
i make love in deep fantasy because im hard to turn on

i eat without chewing to swallow the truth
but deny when your lying to avoid get used

we hold hands when were in public 
but look in different directions

both going to the same place 
with complete dissaray

lost in your confusion 
wanting to learn what i can

giving you space to make your own decisions
trying hard to understand

your bleeding me dry!
