A Torn Instance

A portrait of your face hangs within these walls where it will stay
For all of eternity so that none shall see what you've turned me into
Burn my flesh and try to forget
You always come back

You are the reason I can't sleep at night
What a flattering remark
Words such as these feed the pain inside
This monster grows quicker than eyes can blink

Beginning to engulf my pride and joy

I peer under the closet door and fantasies run through my mind
I never shined so bright
I never shined so bright

A portrait of your face hangs within these walls where it will stay
For all of eternity so that none shall see what you've turned me into
Burn my flesh and try to forget
You always come back
Tied to the depths of the ocean floor
You always come back
You are the reason I can't sleep at night
What a flattering remark
Words such as these feed the pain inside
This monster grows quicker than eyes can blink

Beginning to engulf my pride and joy
It's just a test of my strength
I peer under the closet door and fantasies run through my mind

Then as if compassion never existed, this dream becomes
Becomes a nightmare
Overtaking every aspect of emotion
There are no feelings
Only thoughts of self pity
look what you've brought me to
I lay on my knees
Please leave and never return
