Breaking Free

by ºCrimsonTearsº   Sep 13, 2005


I lay here in the frozen darkness,
Silent tears escaping my eyes,
A fake smile stretched upon my lips,
My arm scarred with all of your lies.

Trusty razor blade embedded in my hand,
A grainy picture of us in my mind,
My memories escape me, fading away,
Subconsciously leaving you and I behind.

I cling on with hope and all that I can,
But deep down I'm breaking free,
The noose has loosened, my binds are falling,
My mask breaks to reveal the real me.

Still scarred and hurting but learning to heal,
This is me with no need to be fake,
My first steps are shaky, still scared to fall,
I'm still scared to fail and break.

But I'll take my time and walk on slow,
Whilst my scars heal over and mend,
I am what I am, take it or leave it,
The real me, now no need to pretend.

''Deep down... I'm breaking free..''
