Torn and Twisted

Harsh words & violent blows
Hidden secrets nobody knows

Eyes are open, hands are fisted
Deep inside I'm torn & twisted

So many tricks & so many lies
Too many whens & too many whys

Nobody's special, nobody's gifted
I'm just me, torn & twisted

Sleeping awake & choking on a dream
Listening loudly to a silent scream

Call my mind, the number's unlisted
Lost in someone so torn & twisted

On my knees, alive but dead
Look at the invisible blood I've bled

I'm not gone, my mind has drifted
Don't expect much, I'm torn & twisted

Burnt out, wasted, empty, & hollow
Today's just yesterday's tomorrow

The sun died out, the ashes sifted
I'm still here, torn & twisted
