A complex image is reflected in your self An outdated concept defined by fear I bite down my tongue to hold back rage What did I do to deserve this? I'll never forget how I felt So weak and worthless I don't have the strength to forgive Every empty promise spat from your mouth my inheritance of shame I'm drowning in doubt The pain never fades It only slips away A sad excuse for a man Burning in your selfishness No where else to turn A life once cherished, rotting in dirt I question myself day to day Was I enough to love? I tore myself apart to give you all i've got Forfeit your life No strength to forgive Shattered memories Splinter into visions of hostility The pain never fades It only slips away
