Please pardon the distant, hollow eyes
They've seen their share of Hell
Excuse me if my touch seems cold
I've forgotten how warmth feels
If you touch me and I don't react
It's because I've become numb
I've forgotten how to feel
For you see, I have a damaged soul
A soul once alive has tarnished over time
My heart has been trampled
Under the feet of too many
And I'm tired----
The next time you see me smile
Don't assume I'm okay
If I crack a joke
Laugh with me, it's how I cope
I'm not okay
I'm damaged
And I don't know when
I'll ever be repaired.
