put me down
seal my hell
nothing hurts me, like myself
fighting through the pain
playing to my strengths
choking down the shame, still you’re judging me
nothing you can say cuts as deep as me
i'm my enemy, unrelenting
beat down by the critics
beat down by the cynics
beat down by my friends
all alone i stand
i know what they say, know they laugh at me
this bullshit won’t go away
prove them wrong
show them all
prove them wrong
born to beat them
prove them wrong
smash them all
prove them wrong
i’m not done yet
burning
in my own hell
no one hurts me, like myself
no one, hurts me, like myself
focus on the rage
can’t control the hate
bitterness remains all that’s left of me
everything you say stokes the flames in me
words cannot explain this intensity
your laughter drives me insane
it is the fuel to my hate
and soon i’ll thrive on your pain
cause still one constant remains
