Cracked, Broken, Truth

Getting treated like crap
Like trash
Feel less than normal
Abnormal, paranormal
Careless chatter in an empty room
Space of eternal gloom
Cracked, broken, shattered
Under pressure, antimatter
Paralyzed and scared
Afraid and unprepared
Less than right, more than wrong
Words that bring you down, not strong
Not enough to help you through
Everything said, true and untrue
A great leap of faith to make you fly high
Into the sky, you dream and cry
Lose your mind, being treated so poorly
Things said, sorely demised
