Less Than What You Are

What you thought you starved now draws breath You could let it out or keep it all depressed just close it off and let the silence swell instead And not to make you think you're less than what you are Protect yourself and conseal your scars But as I pry I'm slowly starting to understand why I am what I am and why I can't make you understand internaly They'd give there lives to get inside Manipulation Strip our self control And where you think you stand Demonstrates all I despize But was ment as only well
