Bitter emo girl

A bitter goth girl,
with a shriveled black heart.
Is this how you see me?
Do you think you know me?
Do you pretend you care?

You don't know me,
no one ever has.
I keep my true self hidden,
and I don't let that girl out.
She screws things up,
with all of her emotions and cares.
And so I ignore all of their stares.

The girl I am and used to be,
cries much less than me.
She smiles a lot more
and dances in the sun.
But this isn't how you see me.
You see the shell
that I created to lock up that girl.

The girl that I was
wore lip gloss and skirts.
She laughed so hard she'd cry.
But because of people like you I'm not that girl.

I keep my true self hidden,
and I don't let that girl out.

It happened again
Again I fell for you
And again I got hurt

I?m Laing on the floor
With blood streaming tears
Those of a broken heart

I gave you my all
And again it didn?t worked for us
One of us is always lost

I didn?t care when you did
And you didn?t care when I did
But I love you

I thought you were stronger
But the only way you were strong
Was when you broke my heart

You tore it apart?again
You stepped on the pieces?again
Until it cut your feet?again

Then you ran away again
Leaving me there
Drowning in my bloody tears
