Hurting Inside
Don't you see
What your doing to me
Every turmoil and fight
Leaves me feeling so low.
Carving a scar into my heart
Like a knife to the tree bark
I feel it starting to cut
As the stinging pain
Aches in my soul.
All the blasted howling
Every empty threat spoken
Saying you don't care
About nothing at all,
But I care deeply.
Words spoken so sharp
Like the scissors that clip
Clipping away at my heart
Happiness that once resided
Slowly replaced by sadness.
I've put up with it all
From the day I was born
But now I'm starting to feel
That I'm going to pieces.
One by one
Inch by inch
Slowly, but surely
My soul shrinking
If I scrap my shoulder
I won't mind at all
For the real pain resides
Inside my fragile heart.
