On The Inside
Verse1:
I've spent too long thinking about that night
I've spent my days trying to figure it out right
Those words you said to me are still living in my head
I'm just trying to live, but I feel pretty dead
Chorus1:
On the inside my heart was failing my lungs couldn't breath
On the inside my dreams were falling, faster than when you leave
On the inside I could feel a storm coming fast around the bend
On the inside there's broken pieces that I just can't mend
Verse2:
But there's a part of me that I can't reach anymore
You took it with you when you left me a mess on the floor
I just don't want to have to pretend anymore
That we are just friends when we both feel more
Bridge:
My heart is falling from the sky
My fears are becoming realer than the night
I can hear me screaming, I'm wanting to be free
But what I want, isn't what I need

I wrote this one day after school. I put all my anger into the words on a page. It's hard to imagine something so beautiful, coming from an experience that was so horrible.
