smashed crayons
a stolen youth replaced with memories
bleeding like open wounds
when you try to close it up
it just helps the pain get deeper inside of you
childhood, where did you go?
childhood, I hope you know
you can make or break a child

the suspension of pain
makes sanity hard to retain
tried to run around
tried to get away
but I was held down by social chains

so I tried to look on the bright side
I'm only me until I die
so I tried to look on the bright side
well how can I, if I can't find the light

I tried to unleash
I tried to break free
from the repetitious demons
and all the shattered dreams
from blistered sidewalks
and broken childhood memories
forever lost in these nightmarish scenes
I stare unwilling into the pain they caused me
and the mental scars I'm left to carry
back
