The echoing silence
Laced with screams
The suffocating darkness
Closes in around me
Trapped in the void
I can't forget the past
I'm too afraid to face the future
Just a dead soul in an empty shell
Yes, I've put up walls
They serve many puposes
Do you care enough
To break through them?
I'm sorry it has to be this way
But it's true what they say--
The pain doesn't hurt
When it's all you've ever known
I hear the whispers
Razors from sharpened tongues
Each word that reaches my ears
Cuts deeper into this facade
I've made mistakes--
Too many to count--
I've given too many people
Weapons to use against me
I am not perfect
And I've never claimed to be
I'll never be someone I'm not
But I'd rather be anyone than me
You can't begin to imagine
How hard it is to realize
That there's too much truth
In everything they say
But it's all I've ever known
