A Shell That Never Was
Pain, all I've come to know is pain
I don't know what to do to keep myself sane
I keep abusing myself, it's breaking my mind
Tell me lord, how can I commit such a crime?
I hate myself, what I have become, what I am
It's getting to a point where I just don't give a damn
Why do I feel like I am dead even though I am living?
Is it so bad to want after all my countless giving?
I'm becoming bitter, empty, a broken shell
Putting myself through this personal hell
Forgive me for I have sinned and sinned again
I'm only but a mortal, a shell of a broken man
I cannot find enough words to convey my heart
So please, just give me a new chance,
