Inexplicably Worn


Seems like everywhere I go something turns out wrong I want to walk away but I am forced to be strong Lies have revealed themselves and trouble has arrived I tried to avoid this while being revealed to new eyes I'm broken so much and angry as hell But no body is to know this- I tell them I'm well Hold in the tears and hide away the pain I opened up when I should have restrained I'm tough on the outside, but easy to break I fight against these forces every moment that I'm awake I'm indecisive and unbearably torn- with a heart that's inexplicably worn It once was broken and never was repaired- which can only explain why I'm so scared
