I was meant for more,

Built for life,

I considered the reasons,

And made my choice,


I chose wrong,

And now I'm ashamed,

Of myself my words and the lies,


The flash of silver,

Was a mistake,

It's fucked my life,

I wish I weren't so weak,


I tried standing tall,

Tried to believe,

But all the lies caught up,

And the pain returned,


I'm so tired of this game,

So tired of the hurt and shame,

I want to be something,


Not the someone in whispered talks,

I have so much to offer,

And so little resources,

I need to be given the chance,

Once again,

That I'm so much more,

Than the lonely girl,

I so am,


Inside I'm screaming,

Frustrated with hate,

Blinded by burdens,

And plagued by tears,


I only wanted understanding,

Now all I have are secrets and regrets,

All my dreams are falling away from me,

I just wish I could turn back the clock.
