Why don't they see
Why can't anyone see i'm trying to reach out
That there is more than meets the eye
Why does no one ask me what happened the halloween when i was 13
Why does My own mother not believe me
No he's getting closer
and i'm growing thinner
I hope he stays away
other wise there is no stopping him
He will get me
Then maybe my mother will see that it was for real and i didn't lie

You're supposed to be my parents
You're supposed to love me
You're supposed to be there for me
You're not supposed to call me names
Or even hit me around
I shouldn't have to get two jobs
i shouldn't have pay for my own food
Why are you like this?
you were so sweet before
You're supposed to kiss me good night
You're supposed to hug me close
you don't do any of that
who are you?
i just don't know anymore

You Tell Me You Love Me
you tell me you love me then you break my heart
i saw you with her in that old car
you tried to lie and say it wasn't you
well buddy i've learned a thing or two
maybe you should tell you friends not to narc
cuz baby i don't want to hold you in my arms
you cheated and you lied
tried to deny it all
well honey i'm sorry that it's all wrong
i'm done with you
so goodbye farewell

Don't Help Her
Don't help her she doesn't want it
you're suffocating her trying to give it
she's not used to all the help
if she wanted help she'd ask
still trying to find out her place
family doesn't help that race
she wants to be alone
now you've gone and done it
she's alone!
don't help her please I beg of you
she doesn't need your help
I'm asking as her friend please just leave her alone

I don't cry
i don't cry
it's just not me
but today i cried so heavily
i watched a movie that brought it all back
i guess i just got overwhelmed
you see i don't let people see that side
cuz they will use it agaisnt you to get what they want
i've cried so much in the past 2 days i don't know why
i never cry in front of people i know i just don't like to anymore
i'm sick of crying cuz i'm stressed

I can finally breathe
Finally I can breathe around you again
I don't feel like I have to walk on egg shells
I have a new boyfriend
when you found out I saw the look in your eyes
you seemed hurt but there was nothing I could do
I had asked you if we could start over and you said no so what was I supposed to do
I can finally breathe and walk and be myself
I can't wait till the day I can call you mine again!

Fake smiles
Everyday I smile to make people belive that I'm okay
They believe it too!
When will I be able to take off my mask?
Let people see the real me?
I let her out sometimes in my writing
But she scares me
She's a deamon that has taken over my body
That's why I'm scared to let her out
Scared to become her
Scared what she will do to me
Most of all I'm scared that she will take over and I'll loose this part of me.

Stronger Now 2013
for years i've lived in the past
afraid that he was comming after me
not anymore
i'm done being scared
i need to live my life the way i want to
not live in fear of when he will get me
i will keep an eye out though
i know he's looking
but all he knows is south dakota
no towns or anything
i'm so much stronger now then when i was 13
i will be 18 in 4 mounths
i need to start thinking about what i want outta life

Almost summer
The year is winding down
Making new friends
Breaking the old
Everyone's waiting for summer
Can't wait for summer
Restless for summer
But there is one girl that doesn't want summer to come
Because then she knows that its all lost
She will be a senior
She will go to college
And that is her greatest fear
Will she be okay on her own?
Will she end up killing herself?
Noone knows I guess we will just have to wait

Id Rather Die 1
Tried to live without you
All i'm left with is heartbreak
It hurts to breathe
I'm under to much stress
please help me
I tried and i failed miserably
The worst part is Im all alone now
with no one to hold me
i'm crumbling to the ground
all i want to do it taks on last breathe and say goodbye
if i can't live with you then i'd rather die that try to get ove ryou
id rather die then be stuck here alone
i love you so much
