Look At Me

You brought me to my knees
I'm not as strong as I used to be.
Where once there was confidence
Now there is only defense.

I'm the enemy in your eyes
I'm captured in this web of lies.
I sit alone without a prayer
My body shakes with despair.

You've taken from me all you can take
And made sure I paid for each mistake.
You watch me sit in total fear
And laugh at each and every tear.

As I lean against this giant wall
I pray that God will take my call.
You tell the world of all my faults
And now you win by default.
I look around and its plain to see
Your wish came true ...
Just look at me.
