Forgotten Whole
Posted: Thu Oct 02, 2008 2:25 pm
I never said I had everything,
but I have everything I need.
I never said I was unbreakable,
you've been known to make me bleed.
I never said I wanted to be alone,
even though I know I could make it -
It's easier fixing what hasn't been done.
It doesn't matter what I do,
what I say, or how I talk to to you -
How many pictures of me do you hang in your room?
Do you even know when my birthday is?
I'm a bastard girl without a friend -
I may survive, but I don't live.
My sweat and blood, tears and fears go into everything
I know I'm not your only girl, and I know I'm not perfect,
but will my name ever fall upon your lips naturally?
Will you ever pair up the right girl with her name?
Bruised and battered we lay on the floor.
You pushed us too far ,and we're to blame.
My obstacles are getting to be too great,
but I won't fall and surrender - I will stand on my own two feet again
My words being sharp, but true and tender;
one day you'll see me and wish to go back.
Back to before you scarred my soul.
And I alone will learn to live
as both parts of a forgotten whole
but I have everything I need.
I never said I was unbreakable,
you've been known to make me bleed.
I never said I wanted to be alone,
even though I know I could make it -
It's easier fixing what hasn't been done.
It doesn't matter what I do,
what I say, or how I talk to to you -
How many pictures of me do you hang in your room?
Do you even know when my birthday is?
I'm a bastard girl without a friend -
I may survive, but I don't live.
My sweat and blood, tears and fears go into everything
I know I'm not your only girl, and I know I'm not perfect,
but will my name ever fall upon your lips naturally?
Will you ever pair up the right girl with her name?

And I alone will learn to live
