"it's funny how when someone breaks your heart you still love them with all of your pieces"


All my scars are tearing open,
wounds all starting to bleed.
My heart is disintegrating
under the pressure of these

Weights that you're putting on me,
wrapped up in your chains,
immobile I'm restrained.
I'm the only one to blame.
I let you inside my mind and
you're taking over me.
Now that you're in there all the time
you're making it difficult to think.

Impossible to breathe,
I'm gasping for air.
I could rebel and get my freedom...
but i wouldn't dare.

Under your oppression
I'm becoming a mere possession
that you own for life;
but I'd rather die

than be stuck in this cage
held in by your rage.
Yearning for liberty
from you: my disease.

oh oh oh woah-oh
oh-oh oh oh

I have to break free
because you're killing me!
Let me out of your arms
so I can be able to see.

You were blinding me
with your false hopes and dreams;
anything to do with you
is never how it seems

I have to break free
run away; scream
I have to break free

oh oh oh woah-oh
oh-oh oh oh


The author's comments:
I was in an abusive relationship a while ago, and writing this was a way to- I guess, well, literally break free from the memory of him. I wish I had done it sooner so I could stop lingering on the choices I made.It gave me a sense of closure and a chance to rebuild my stability when I finally wrote it down.
