What have I become....

I hurt myself today

to see if I still feel

I focus on the pain

the only thing that's real.

The needle tears a hole

the old familiar sting

try to kill it all away

but I remember everything.

What have I become?

my sweetest friend

everyone I know

goes away in the end.

and you could have it all

my empire of dirt

I will let you down

I will make you hurt.

I wear this crown of thorns

upon my liar's chair

full of broken thoughts

I cannot repair.

Beneath the stains of time

the feelings disappear

you are someone else

I am still right here.

What have I become?

my sweetest friend

everyone I know

goes away in the end

and you could have it all

my empire of dirt

I will let you downI

will make you hurt

If I could start again

a million miles away

I would keep myself

I would find a way...
