I Fought To Get Out of Bed

I fought to get out of bed today
Its nothing new
I fought every other day.

You see
When eyes look at you
But eyes don't see what they do
Eyes only see everything but you
Eyes destroy who
You
Are.

I fought to get out of bed today
Its nothing new,
Its nothing I haven't fought before 

You see 
When ears 
hear
 your pained words
But words choose to say what they want to say
You give up,
There's no hope anyway.

I fought to get out of bed today
Its nothing new,
Its nothing I haven't fought
The day before 
 
You see

When hands touch you
Despite your protests
You begin to detest
Every touch after that
Body scents that never left
Hands
All over my body
I shiver
Lips quiver
You won't see me cry
I keep quiet
Close my eyes
"Breathe"
Hands
Running all over my body
Learning contours
That where never yours to learn
Hands on my skin
-It burns
 
You see
Hands know that its wrong
But hands want what they want anyway
So I just wish them away
Carry on 
Like it's a normal day.

I fought to get out of bed today,
Its nothing new,
Nothing I haven't fought
Every other day.

You see

Nose runs down your neck
Inhaling your scent
And you try not to smell the same
You don't want to be the one they blame,

You see
They'll inhale your scent,
Etch it to their body
Worship it like you're holy
"Obsession"
You think
He smiles and gives you a little wink
You feel weak
In the pit of your stomach
And you wish so much
That this is the last
Knowing tomorrow you'll
Wish for another "last"

I fought to get out of bed today
Its nothing new,
Nothing I haven't fought the day before 

You see
A tongue that takes what it wants
Tastes what you've tasted 
Steals your tongue
You close your eyes for the taste you can not bare
"Its all just a nightmare"

You see 
The roughness on his lips
Will make you wish
You never knew the meaning of a kiss
You'll wish
You didn't have he's unapologetic lips on yours
Forced...

I fought to get out of bed today,
It's nothing new,
Nothing I haven't fought the day before

My senses destroyed
By your lust, your games
And I'll never be the same

For you see

I fought to get out of bed today,
Its nothing new,
Nothing I haven't fought before ...
