What Have You Done

My head is spinning out of control.
World is getting blurry.
My eyes burn like hell.
What have you done to me?
I wake up screaming from dreams of your embrace.
Just the thought of you makes me sick.
Your love was a joke, a chain, wrapped around my neck.
This is what I get for breaking free.
Left on the floor, tears streaming down my cheeks.
Breaking, shattering in the midnight air.
No company but my own burning shadow.
Bruises stain my neck,scars dance across my wrist.
Numbing my pain with bottles,pills,blades..anything.
My head is spinning out of control.
World is getting blurry.
It's like I'm on a highway to hell.
Can't get off.
Don't want to.
The pain reminds me that there was a time when I was alive.
Now I'm just a dead girl walking.
What have you done to me..
