the pains only numbed for a minute,
shoots right back through me everytime i turn around to your face
like your hands around my neck
and your fingers pulling at my hair
your repeating every mistake i've ever made
nothing ever fades in your eyes
nothin ever just falls away

i'll always be broken to you
the daughter you lost long ago
a glass half empty
a bird that never learns to fly away

every time i try a little harder
the quicker you are to turn away
to bring down my every false hope
stomp out every inspiring word i tried to say

and it's hard to be me
when you look out my window and don't see any light for today
you tell me to just lay back down
there's no use in my trying to succeed
trying to wish my problems away

you said a shooting star only lasts for a minute
it always falls out of sight
every little evil thing you've ever done to me
they seem to come on stronger
each and every waking day

the sun never shines when you desire
each day you step outside
the days grow darker
longer and more blank
