Beaten.

Been beaten and whipped, 

My soul is stripped, 

Bare, before your eyes, 

You can see through the lies, 

Through the hate and the pain,

All that drove me insane.

 

I am broken and battered, 

My heart's been shattered. 

Bloodied and torn, 

I crave a new dawn, 

The virginal light, 

That ends the night. 

 

I am bruised and crushed, 

My hopes turned to dust, 

Like the dust from the grave, 

From the one you can't save, 

So look at what you've done, 

As I bleed in the sun. 

 

I have nothing left in my soul, 

It's just a black, jagged hole, 

In what was my life, 

So hand me that knife, 

I'll cut it out of my heart, 

The heart that tore me apart.

Oooh, the ending really got me! The adjectives and similes all bring it together VERY well!
