Damaged

Dreaming comes so easy,
When it’s all you’ve ever known.
And I know it shouldn’t still hurt me,
When I realize I’m all alone.

Broken fairytales scattered on burned pages,
Across a dark bedroom’s floor.
Even lost in the dark I can’t forget this,
But I can no longer reach the door.

I have so much I didn’t say,
To a man who was stronger.
You took so much away,
And it’s not mine any longer.

I was just a little girl that you broke down,
Nice, naïve, and beautiful, you took advantage.
I’m dirty and damaged now,
What was your intended message?

I’m damaged now all because of you,
Nobody wants me and I’ve kept them all away.
I’m damaged now, but that you already knew,
Yet when we've come face to face, I can't find words to say.

I tremble and I cry,
And it's all because of you.
I just wish you'd disappear or die,
I don't know what I should do.

I'll keep running away,
Because it's all I've ever known.
An arm's length is where everyone will stay,
My emotions will not be shown...
