My War Within
Shards of metal pieces
Running through my veins
From the knife you used to stab me
Destruction's all you've gained
Bit by bit you've taken
Every ounce of who I am
And when I'm finally happy
You still don't give a damn
Saddness seems your poison
You angerly berate
Immortalness denies
All the hatred you create
You want to take my words
And twist them inside out
My thoughts you try to steal
So all I have is doubt
You think you can control me
By manipulation and guilt
But take a look around you
My walls are those you've built
My walls grow stronger everyday
Protecting from the pain
And when I choose to do so
I'll come out of the rain
