Here we are, lying broken on the ground.
The days have gone by, each passing with thier own drama unfolding.
Why should a greet another day, to whuch i'll just have to cry once more.
It's getting harder to handle,
The yelling and the pain.
My own brother hits me, and the cops are called again.
A charge for domestic violence, I'm just another victem.
the tallys are piling up,
And i have no where to turn.
Even when i run, the pain finds me still.
A god-daughter i love, being neglected by a once friend.
Taking in her one year old soul, and trying to heal her for the weekend.
Her mother's boyfriend is a letch, who put his grubby hands on me,
Her mother takes his side, and i'm the slut who tried to seduce him.
There goes my baby of my heart, who know's when i'll see her again?
Why should i continue waking?
When with every day my soul is shattering?
I take another drink,
Trying to drown my pain.
As the world blurs, i find some sort of solitude.
My liquid tranquilizer is quieting the noise of my overcomplicated life.
No more pain from my brother, no more hurtful words from someone i thought of as a sister over a letch. No more endless nights of worry for my god-child...
I'm ready for a more permanet kind of sleep.
Just let me lay my head down on my pillow,
And drift into a world where i won't be hurt any longer.
Farewell and goodnight.
