dead and gone

dead and gone

am i

the one you loved 

the one you lost

you thought i had stayed

well you're wrong

you were the fool

the one who thought you could escape me

I shall remain here

the rebel

the one who isn't afraid

the one who fights for what she believes in

even when she's alone

i am the one 

who sat there crying

who now has red eyes

who dreams of things

a girl should never be thinking

and i could see no way out

the pain was excruciating

and i lessened it

i wanted to fix it

and you wanted it broken

i have several scars

some you never see

some on the inside

several more on the outside

the days grow long

and more tiresome

sometimes i wonder why i'm still here

why i am still FIGHTING.
