    Wrote this several times but this is the finished version. Im so depressed now I just wanted to post it here.


    Everytime I Get Close

    Following me, more painful everyday
    This image I've tried to escape
    Watching over, every step of the way
    Finding nothing but mistakes
    Within every question I'm becoming even more lost
    Cause nothing ever turns out to be what I always thought
    How am I suppose to make it through this on my own
    If the only thing I know to do is what I've been shown?

    Everytime I get close
    I let go of what's in front of me
    (Proving to myself that I'm just too weak)
    Everytime I get close
    I end up letting go of everything
    (Cause I'm always messing things up for me)

    Here I am slowly dying inside
    Beyond the point in which time heals
    Revealing what's left of the pride
    Just for every ounce to be concealed
    And as I look up the truth is starring back at me
    Knowing I'll never be able to accept what I see
    Cause just when I think I can turn to myself for the answer
    I find my own dependence will only bring to me failure

    Everytime I get close
    I let go of what's in front of me
    (Proving to myself that I'm just too weak)
    Everytime I get close
    I end up letting go of everything
    (Cause I'm always messing things up for me)

    Even though I've made it this far
    Inside I'm still so lost and scarred
    I cannot ####### go through with this
    It's just too much to be pushed against
    There's just so much about me
    That I wish I could change

    Everytime I get close
    I let go of what's in front of me
    (Proving to myself that I'm just too weak)
    Everytime I get close
    I end up letting go of everything...
    Everytime I get close
    I let go of what's in front of me
    (Proving to myself that I'm just too weak)
    Everytime I get close
    I end up letting go of everything
    (Cause I'm always messing things up for me)

    Scars To Hide

    So I try to cover up these scars and the choices I've made
    But it's clear the only thing that seems to help is this blade
    And I try to look away but it's consuming my every thought
    It's all I can think about / living in the fear of being caught
    Replacing every scar with an open wound to medicate
    Myself from the problems that always seem to create

    I'll ease the pain with every cut
    until I can feel some relief
    Because the only way to heal me
    is to open these wounds
    I'll medicate myself from the pain
    that I've kept down inside
    Knowing there won't always be room
    for these scars to hide

    I try to make myself stop but I fall into the blades comfort
    Because within all of it's pain is the relief from all the hurt
    And it's clear that I can't control myself I'm just too afraid
    Because it's the only way that from this pain I can evade
    And although tommorow it will show all over my arms,
    The relief is worth each and every one of these scars

    I'll ease the pain with every cut
    until I can feel some relief
    Because the only way to heal me
    is to open these wounds
    I'll medicate myself from the pain
    that I've kept down inside
    Knowing there won't always be room
    for these scars to hide

    I tried to hide this from the world
    but I just couldn't conceal it all
    I tried to hide this from everyone
    and now I'm left with every flaw



    There's another.

    Everything You Feel

    Deception strengthens the voice
    As she distorts the picture as if it was her own
    Sharing what's never been seen
    Just a fake inside her twisted little mind
    And somewhere in the distance lies for her to see
    That life will never be what she has made it out to be

    I never know If I should trust
    Or take everything as a lie
    Because I'm so use to the way
    You fake everything you feel inside

    Deception defines another choice
    As she convinces herself that she's not alone
    Spreading what will never be seen
    Just a glimps of what she's chosen to deny
    And somewhere in the distance lies for her to see
    That life will never be as bad as she wants it to be

    I never know If I should trust
    Or take everything as a lie
    Because I'm so use to the way
    You fake everything you feel inside


    And another.
