I always tried to be better, stronger
But it would never be enough
Each time another piece would fall away
And every time I smiled and said it was okay

You never saw me sitting in the dark
Staring at a self inflicted mark
You never cared enough to see beyond the facade
And with each passing moment I was left to fade

You made me feel worthless, small
Sometimes I think you just liked to see me fall

It all came together in the end
All the pain covering me like a blanket
The only thing I knew how to feel
The only thing I knew to be real

After all, I'm still sitting in the dark
Wondering where I went wrong
I used to be so strong
But it seems that has all gone.
