I'm Not Her
Tear stained pillow
These fears don't leave me
I need a vaccine for your sickness
To safeguard my heart
My eyes bleed conformity
My ego bruised
Barefoot and naked
You've seen everything
Love growing, but it died
Paint me as you see me, love
Straight boring lines
But your views don't define me
Classical masterpiece
Hopelessly tragic sin
But did you know?
That I would have followed you to hell?
Stumbling, falling, crawling
Just trying to keep up
The air thick with disgust
Violins screaming
Music notes as I breathe
Sparks lighting up my history
Burn the pages of that book
For I am no longer her
