Eternal Victim
Lonely shadows in my heart
Filled with anger and pain
There is no light left inside of me
Only sadness and misery remain
What have I done to deserve this
I wonder to myself
The way you scream
And always hit me and yell
At me for whatever is wrong
In your life
I am the victim
Yet I am the one left holding the knife
I can't comprehend how this happened
But you got to me
And now I have no confidence
Only self-loathing and misery
I feel myself drowning
And floating away
If only there were
Something I could do or say
But you are in control
And that I know is true
No matter what I try
I can never break free of you
