I Will Not Fail

You want the truth
There are people out there 
That just want to take away your youth
There is nothing we gain
But the fact
We carry around a lot of pain
I beg god please
As I grab the rope
Looking for relief
There is no hope
They say they know the road is long
But you'll turn out to be so strong
I will not fail
I know there will be grief
As my face turns pale
I had no where to go
And no one to call
So I kicked the chair 
And let my body fall

Why Me

You hurt me
Why me?
You took my youth
Why me?
Why couldn't you tell the truth
Why me?
You took my innocents
Why me?
You took something that was mine
Why me?
I'm afraid to sleep at night
Why me?
I'm afraid of you
Why me?
I have a lot of hate
But why towards me?

Voices

As I lay awake in bed
So many thoughts going around
With the voice inside my head
All my worries and fears surround
He's on repeat all day long
I'm not sure how to be strong
The nightmares are so vivid
I'm afraid to fall asleep
Because I know ill wake up livid
Angry at him, angry at me
But none of you can see
What pain is within
The voices always win
I cut myself to be free
But he wont let that be
Thats what he wants
For me to give in, then he's back
He presses into my brain
Like a thumb tack
I will never go back to normal

Brandon

I just lay there to cry
What you did was rape
All you could do was lie
I needed an escape
Instead of putting up a fight
I lay there I pain
No help in sight
You took away what was mine
It felt like it took an eternity
I now cannot say I'm fine
I wish I was smart
And not even met you to start
I have a lot of hate
You have done a lot of damage
And its way too late
I'm hurt, scared and done
Brandon
