Running to my room
The walls are a blur
Looking back behind me
Just to see myself
staring right back at me
Afraid to stop
So much pain within me
I hate myself for so many things
Never letting my heart heal
Forgetting to keep it real
Pretending to be someone else
Showing only my outside appearance
Hoping for the future
Yet never letting go of the past
Telling myself nothing will ever be the same
But have never tried changing the present.
Remembering the better moments
Smiling faces stare at me through photographs
Hanging from my broken mirror
Challenging me to be who I really am
and let go of what might've been.
