LYRIC FOR SALE

By Phoebe Ward

If you look in my eyes, you'll see I'm so lost
Listen to my mind, yeah, I'm so gone
If you hear my heart beating
You'll see it skips more than a few beats
My soul may shine
But not like it used to

Scars all over my body, but they're nothing
Compared to the ones that are deep within
Holding back the pain, the tears, the feelings
I'm locked in my mind, just screaming
But no one hears a sound
Do they even care? No one's around
So I stay to myself, just me and the ghost
Locked in the agony that hurts the most

If you look in my eyes, you'll see I'm so lost
Listen to my mind, yeah, I'm so gone
If you hear my heart beating
You'll see it skips more than a few beats
My soul may shine
But not like it used to

I'm a ghost trapped inside of my own frame
Pain so heavy I forgot my own name
Am I really alive or a zombie in a trance?
Maybe a robot, never given a chance
Not supposed to feel, just do for the rest
Sucks to wear my heart like a target on my chest
Filling up the rooms right up to the ceiling
But attachment is a debt and I'm tired of the dealing
They say "get over it," but they don't see
I care for them, but they never care for me

If you look in my eyes, you'll see I'm so lost
Listen to my mind, yeah, I'm so gone
If you hear my heart beating
You'll see it skips more than a few beats
My soul may shine
But not like it used to

No one cares like I do
They always turn and run to someone new
Someone who can't love them like I do
But who cares?
Wait... I do.
