Pain personified

Pain personified, it's what I see when the mirror stares back
Hurting inside, forcing it out not letting it show
You ask me what you've done wrong
I ask you what makes you think it's your fault

I was never set free
It was all just hidden
Now it's back
Haunting, killing

What has become of the me you knew
Wouldn't we all like to know
I'm fighting my way back
I'm trying to push through

I was never set free
It was all just hidden
A peace of mind and soul?
A piece, a place in my hellish sinkhole

Up at night, hearing you breathe
The chaos never settles in me
I feel I'm lost, wonder if I'll ever be found
Will you put up with it, or will you leave

I was never set free
It was all just hidden
Now I'm waiting for happiness in a pill
And have hopes of finding me in there too

Nothing can soothe anymore
No slowly healing wounds, no scars from before
Something has been lost, is gone, soon forgotten
I don't know what there's left to fight for

I was never set free
It was all just hidden
I wish for a future
But I'm clouded by my past

I was never set free
The pain resided within
I feel like there's no answers
Just me, tearing apart my skin

I was never set free
I'm still trapped
I keep on falling away
This isn't me
