Me
I'm just so tired of my darkened heart.
I'm just so tired of facing fear.
I wish I could rid all of these marks,
Because the end of life feels very near.

In the end I want to be,
A recluse with all of his dreams.
A weakling that doesn't flee,
And a sinless human being.

I'm so tired of telling lies.
I'm so tired of feeling guilt.
I can't sleep without lullabies,
And I get out of bed just for milk.

Now this raptured life of mine is dead.
I'm able to live a life that's free.
My life has been repaired without healing lead.
And I finally get to call myself, "Me".

Mom won't let me make choices for life.
Dad won't even let me find a girl.
Give me the future-bloodshot knife.
I feel defeated by a dozen swirls.

I wish I could take these remarks of burning fire,
Supported by the devil himself.
I always called my parents lier's.
They say they give me wealth.
They say they give me a chance.
To choose what paths I want to take.
Oh just give me the lance!

I'm no longer the victim of thrash.
I no longer feel my parents are rash.
Hence thy life is no longer in plea.
Now thou shall call thee..."Me".
