i try to leave it behind
start over again
haunting memories follow
taking me back under
screaming and drowning in my own mistakes
sins and lies
taken over my life
i keep it away
then it all comes back
scared for my future
how can i help
if i'm getting stuck under
my own suffering and pain
people think I'm so good and pure
look inside I'm filled with dirt
black sins
red blood
scared as hell it hurts
you can't see my pain
huge blisters and bruises
I'm slowly dying of pain

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing..
