I'm not the same girl that you once knew,
I'm battered and broken with nothing to lose.
Years ago I held my heart and my pride so high on my shoulders,
But that is all changing as time passes and my body gets older.
I feel as if my heart slowly dies with every breath that I take,
And that my dreams start to vanish with every day that I wake.
I'm not losing my mind but I can't get a grip,
Because all that I loved seems to no longer exist.
I'm surrounded by people everywhere that I go,
But I still feel so lonely but I will never let it show.
I keep all my feelings a secret and my heart bottled up inside,
I've learned to accept the pain to the point that it's now the biggest apart of my life.
So for the rest of my time ill live empty and ashamed,
Because I'm scared to leave my heart open and exposed, for it to be broken once again.
