My pieces are for you...

My pieces are for you...

Tired and lonely 
Shattered and broken
I'm not perfect 
I know for certain 
Today I'm drowning 
I used to climb mountains 
I've never smiled for so long 
Or at least a real happy one
I'm like a ghost to nice people 
I'm like a cancer that's unbeaten 
Is it me who brings their darkness?
If I'm down, do I keep them falling?
Tired and lonely 
Shattered and broken 
I'm not perfect 
I know for certain 
Tomorrow I'll be loving 
I'll rid myself of hating 
Forge my way to play the victim 
Social reality I will pretend to mimic
I test the waters of which I will tread 
I'm consumed of this noise in my head
My heart is a foreigner to the female species
My body is the barrier, my laughter is my weakness 
I'll just hide, telling the truth all the while looking at myself giving another false smile
The rippled reflection gives me a moonlight silence 
Is the right person willing to accept and be my harness
Tired and lonely
Shattered and broken 
I'm not perfect 
I know for certain 
I'm scared of living, I cheat life 
I'm tired of giving, but don't mind
I don't share my stories 
I'm a body in mourning 
I'm guilty of not taking chances 
I'm guilty of not answering questions 
Look closer, what do you see
Look closer, I'm not really me
Just for now,
I'm tired and lonely
Shattered and broken
But my pieces,
My pieces are for you
You are my muse...
