Killed from the Inside

I didn't mean to kill her

The feeling inside

As her eyes go silver

Yet I have nothing to hide


She was my confidence

It's what made me go on

They brought it to this

Her screams made a solemn song


All the others held a smirk

As I grasped her lifeless body

They wanted me to hurt

As I let go of her softly,


My confidence is dead

Only pain increased

They got to my head

And now she's deceased
