Fractured

Fractured, and torn
Inside I am warn.
Branded and burned
But it’s not your concern.
Splinters sting inside of my heart
Not sure how to pick them apart.
Seen so many lies draped in smiles
This is my life, these are my trials.
There has been a murder
A murder of trust
Many have lied because of their lust.
There has been a burglary  
A burglary of dreams.
Nothing is ever what it seems.
Seeing things I don’t want to see,
Feeling things I don’t want to feel,
This is real 
Signed and sealed
I don’t know if this can ever be healed. 
I am over the manipulation that you think I don’t notice
It’s time for me to disconnect and simply focus.
The remnant of an old foundation still peeks through
It’s like every time I cut it down somehow it starts anew.
I have barricaded the city
The city inside of me
How can I get better if I won’t let the inhabitants free?
I have had just about enough of the games that come from the second sky
It’s time for a new beginning its time to say goodbye.
This is not my home nor will it ever be
I just long not to feel vacant, barren and empty.
But the war has been vicious and there have been many causality
This world has become one big disease to me.
The good that danced in the wind is starting to wind down
And I find it hard to carry on when no one is around.
I know too much
But know nothing at all
This is a blessing but also my down fall.
It’s like I’m speaking a foreign language when I talk to others
You know the ones who were supposed to be my brothers.
Judgments have been made and the verdict is in
The outcome is spoken with a sinister grin.
How witty
What a pity,
How direct
Their intellect.
How false their accusation
I am about to just change the station
I am about to just run 
I know who to run too
Vindication does not come from man
It comes right from you.
One day I will see the fruit of my labor
None of you are my savior
But until then, I will persevere
Cast down every fear
Trample over all my enemies
While at the same time praying 
they get brought to their knees.
