Their Betrayal

It's here on the ground
That I lay broken and bruised
After my self-destructive fall
That when i looked for the ones I thought loved me
They were nowhere at all

So cut me because you hate me
Kick me while I'm down
Flush me like I'm vermin
Expect me just to drown

Betrayal is the scar thats cut deepest
Yet revenge is a taste that is sweetest
So far away locked in my hearts safe
I'll leave this wasted life behind me
