Problems
10/29/02
I need to escape,
I need to fly,
I need to get away from it all.
I need to get away from you.
When you're around my resolve disappears,
My end seems eminent.
I tried to hide.
I tried to be invisible,
but that's when you saw me the most.
You saw me when I was invisible.
The more I shut myself away
the closer you came to me,
the harder I tried to hide
the easier I was to be seen.
By you.
I just want to live my life
I want to be a normal girl
I want to do normal things.
But I can't.
Not with you following me.
Will I ever have peace?
Will I ever be the ruler of my own life?
How do I escape you?
Why won't you leave me alone?
I don't want to die,
but you carry death.
Ever closer you come to me
No matter how fast I run
I tried it once,
I swore never again,
I tried it twice,
But that's not how I'm supposed to end.
Go away, leave me be.
Why can't you be just like the rest of the world
and pretend I'm not there?
Why am I never truly alone?
I can't see you,
but I can feel you.
You haunt my dreams,
as well as my waking moments.
How do I make you stop?
Is there only one way?
To let you win and then you'd leave?
But what then would be left of me?
Tattered
Torn
Broken
What will I succumb to,
to have peace?
And at such a price,
what kind of peace would it really be?
I am growing weary of this struggle
Soon I will no longer be able to fight
Will my last efforts prove victorious?
But on which side is the real victory?
What will be left of me?
