The Abused

If the burdens always turn into scars
Will we ever heal
We pretend that we are not who we are
Like the pain's not real
I've learned to bottle up and hide my emotions
In hopes you leave
So go ahead and try and reignite what you've stolen
You've broken me

I've got nothing else to lose
Your pride is just disguising
The abused
(The abused)
I've got nothing else to prove
But I'm hiding from the lion that
Left me bruised
Beaten down I need the truth
You said that you had loved me
A helpless little lie
Swore it on your blood
But you didn't even try
I don't wanna keep on running
The hurt just turns to numbing
I'll make you see
That now the fire burns in me
Now the fire burns in me

You think you understand me
But how could I be happy
When I don't have a family because of you
Now you wonder why I'm broken
If only you had noticed
Before you left me hopeless
Now I'm begging you
I'll bottle up and hide my emotions to save my soul
Now you can only watch as the fire burns ice cold

I've got nothing else to lose
Your pride is just disguising
The abused
(The abused)
I've got nothing else to prove
But I'm hiding from the lion that
Left me bruised
Beaten down I need the truth
You said that you had loved me
A helpless little lie
Swore it on your blood
But you didn't even try
I don't wanna keep on running
The hurt just turns to numbing
I'll make you see
That now the fire burns in me
Now the fire burns in me
Now the fire burns in me

Look in my heart
You'll only hear the screams
You say I'll never be alone
You stitched my soul
And now the love could never enter the seems
Look at my scars
I'll always fear what I've seen
You know I'll never feel at home
A drifting soul
That found he couldn't ever treasure his dreams

You said that you had loved me
A helpless little lie
Swore it on your blood
But you didn't even try
I don't wanna keep on running
The hurt just turns to numbing
I'll make you see
That now the fire burns in me
Now the fire burns in me
Now the fire burns in me
Fire burns inside of me
Through the smoke and screams
I can barely breathe
While the fire burns in me
