More Than I Claim To Be;

I'm standing in my the middle

Of my faded-yellow bedroom

The curtains are closed

And the darkness consumes

I'm home alone

So, no one hears my shouts

And no one hears my knuckles hit the wall

They wouldn't even know what I am mad about

To tell you the truth

I'm only angry with one person

I'm mad with myself

For letting my scars worsen

I fall to the ground

My head in my hands

I see the scars I wish were gone

'cause no one understands

I doubt they want to anyway

'Cause i'm nothing entirely special

At least, that's what they all say

I'm just accidental

Never supposed to be

But, deep inside

I know I'm more than they claim me to be

I wish they'd see

I feel so entirely alone

I feel so invisible

Wasting away in a pain unknown

To everyone around me

The smaller my heart shrinks

From all these hurtful words

The harder it is to fake a smile

And secretly, inside me, I want my shouts to be heard

I fall to the ground

My head in my hands

I see the scars I wish were gone

'cause no one understands

I doubt they want to anyway

'Cause i'm nothing entirely special

At least, that's what they all say

I'm just accidental

Never supposed to be

But, deep inside

I know I'm more than they claim me to be

I wish they'd see

I hear the hurtful words

And I look around to see who spoke

I only saw a broken reflection in a mirror

And I finally awoke

The yellow walls turn to black

And I realize what I've done

And I wonder how much

I had hurt everyone

I fall to the ground

My head in my hands

I see the scars I wish were gone

'Cause no one understands

I doubt they want to anyway

'Cause i know I'm nothing entirely special

At least, that's what I say

I'm just accidental

Never supposed to be

But, deep inside

I know I'm more than I claim to be

I wish I could see
