BREAK

I'm stuck inside my mind
It's ugly what I find
You think that I'm so kind
This face has got you blind
The little girl will hide
So pretty on the outside
Gonna burn and bleed
This hate is killing me

I stay awake till three
I'm drowning in my sleep
I know the flesh is weak
I pray my soul to keep
I suffocated with grief
This monster will not leave
My nightmare's just begun
I hate what I've become

Cause you made me
To break me

I'm daddy's little girl
My mommy's next to me
I'd rather kill myself
Than go to therapy
Why won't I shut my mouth
Cause you've got eyes like me
Why don't you shoot yourself
So someone dies for me
Mommy

Cause you made me
To hate me

I try to fight
But there's no use
Guess I was built
For your abuse
Bodies bruised
Hands are cold
Vicious thoughts
I can't control
Shed the demons
Rid the past
Slit my wrists
So they ask
What is real
What is fake
Pray to God I don't break

Father forgive me
For I have sinned
It's been 2 weeks
Since my last confession

Don't tell me what I've broken
You ain't seen nothing yet
The glass just left me swollen
It's you I'm gonna get
Are you afraid of me
I think you should be
I'd rather kill myself
Than let you make me bleed
I live in misery
And sit there quietly
Why don't you stab yourself
So someone dies for me
Mommy

No I'm not happy now
You're still here next to me
I'd rather swallow shit
Than you infecting me
I vomit constantly
While you apologize
Why don't you kill yourself
So someone fucking dies
Mommy
