Darkness

Have you ever felt so numb
That you’re struggling to breathe
Just to watch yourself become
The You you shouldn’t be

Depressed and holding onto this pain
The past comes back to haunt me
Life’s a mess and it doesn’t change
I was supposed to...

Monster

Since that day
I’ve been afraid
Of people like you
And apparently you’re human too

Not in my eyes
You’re a monster instead
And your every lie
Is better left unsaid

Monster, do you hear me?
Monster, do you care?
The truth will set me...

My Trauma

The lines, they stay
The roles, unchanged
Screaming, in fear
The demon is here

The act, committed
The trauma, I’ve admitted
The damage is done
The demon has won

The rape is done
The post trauma is yet to come
My story, untold
The...

Dear Rapist

People are talking
And it’s about you
You just keep on walking
And you still don’t have a clue

There’s a saying and it goes
“Whatever happens in the dark always comes to the light”
Oh no, everybody’s gonna know
Looks like you’re gonna lose...

End Rape Culture

Rape culture is never ending
You should blame the rapist instead you blame the victim
It’s usually the people you know and trust but you ain’t havin it
That just makes you just as bad as them

The excuses go from “you shouldn’t dress like...

I’m Free

Letting go of your demons
Letting go of the pain
Even with the ongoing seasons
You’re never gonna change

You’ll never be a human
You’re the true devil in disguise
Even with all the reasons
Yet you still deny

The person you truly are
Is...

Ghost Of Me

I look in the mirror and what do I see
Staring back is my own reflection
The essence of the ghost of me
Seeking for protection

I need to let you go
I can’t keep you around forever
Even though you’re my ghost
Of a past I need to learn...

Tear Me Down

Why do you always gotta tear me down
Like I’m an old abandoned house
Does it make you feel like you’re on top of the world
If it does then that makes me wanna hurl

So go on tear me down
Go ahead, show people who you are
Just stand there...
