Shadow of a man

by SplitSided   Jul 12, 2011


Dying to feel the embrace again.
Just let me know how it feels now and then.
Pick up my broken pieces and save me from myself.
Pick up my broken pieces and give me nothing else.
There's nothing more that I want.
There's nothing more that I've got.
Holding onto hope.
Trying not to let go.
Tears wash away my impurities.
Hatred gives me clarity.
I hate what I've become.
I hate what I've done.
I am my worst enemy.
I can't change what I've done to me.
I can't make this hatred go away.
I've lost my only way.
Severed like the life I've lost.
I suffer now at my own cost.
Show me how to change.
Show me how to change.
Show me how to CHANGE!
Rid me of the shadow I walk in.
Clear me of the disdain I'm in.
Pick up the broken pieces and save me from myself.
Pick up the broken pieces and give me nothing else.
I'm still bleeding from the wounds of your words.
I can't stop the pain or the hurt.
The wounds bleeds as well as it burns.
Disconnect me from myself.
I've surrendered to the pain and don't want help.
I've done all that I can.
I've surrendered to being a shadow of a man...
