Who longed to see you smile
But you tore my heart apart
And forced me into the wild
Just a child
Made to carry this burden
Made to carry this burden
Cast into darkness from the day I was born
Crying out for help but beat to the floor
You never loved me
You never loved me
Battered and broken
Left stripped of emotion
These wounds go far beyond skin deep
What have you done to me?
What have you done to me?
Starved of the love I craved so desperately
Hush little baby don't you say a fucking word
You make my skin fucking crawl
My innocence consumed by fear
Drowning in waterfalls of tears
Yet through a tyranny of words
There's still love here
Can't you see that there is still love here?
Battered and broken
Left stripped of emotion
These wounds go far beyond skin deep
What have you done to me?
What have you done to me?
Starved of the love I craved so desperately
Just a child
The one that you defiled
I bear the scars from my past
A life that you had exiled
Just a child
Born condemned to rejection
Waste away
Though you gave me life, you're fucking dead to me
Waste away
Just a child Who longed to see you smile But you tore my heart apart And forced me into the wild Just a child Made to carry this burden Made to carry this burden Cast into darkness from the day I was born Crying out for help but beat to the floor You never loved me You never loved me Battered and broken Left stripped of emotion These wounds go far beyond skin deep What have you done to me? What have you done to me? Starved of the love I craved so desperately Hush little baby don't you say a fucking word You make my skin fucking crawl My innocence consumed by fear Drowning in waterfalls of tears Yet through a tyranny of words There's still love here Can't you see that there is still love here? Battered and broken Left stripped of emotion These wounds go far beyond skin deep What have you done to me? What have you done to me? Starved of the love I craved so desperately Just a child The one that you defiled I bear the scars from my past A life that you had exiled Just a child Born condemned to rejection Waste away Though you gave me life, you're fucking dead to me Waste away Explain Request ×
