Damaged

Don't cry for me please I don't want it Just be there if ever I need you Don't hurt for me please you can't do it Only I can feel this you don't need to Don't pity me please I abhor it Things happened and nothing can be changed Don't hug me unless you really mean it My emotions like my mind can be deranged I'm damaged, I can't help it I didn't ask for it to be this way I'm damaged, please look past it You'll find the real me someday Don't lie to me please I can't take it Just tell the truth be honest always Don't judge me please I can't help it I've lived through this all of my days Don't love me unless you understand me I'm full on or nothing in between There are places I've yet to let you see Some of them are better left unseen I'm damaged, I can't help it I didn't ask for it to be this way I'm damaged, please look past it You'll find the real me someday Sometimes lives become shattered Moments can turn lives around All of your dreams become scattered All of your hopes appear drowned I'm damaged, I can't help it I didn't ask for it to be this way I'm damaged, please look past it You'll find the real me someday Jane Shields (C)
