My Pain

Beneath a crown of flowers

The body slips inside

The soul bathed in sweetness

From memories far behind

I feel like I've been breathing depression

Scared, there ain't no place to hide

I feel your words and promises

Came to take control

'Been waiting, wasting so much time

You wrapped your fears around my heart

So please,

Sympathize with my pain

And realize you can set me free

Through the holes in my walls

The eyes now want to see

Past the smell of petals

That nailed me to the feet

I feel like I've been taken for granted

Stabbed by every inch of your smile

I feel what took my life away

Is here to take my soul

I know I could be purified

If I drank the tears from your eyes

So please,

Sympathize with my pain

And realize who I could have been

You and everybody taught me to fit

Into something that was never mine

So sympathize with my pain
