Empty Tears

Falling through life
This deep loneliness
My last feelings
Burned and swept aside
I’m all spent up
Nothing left to give

Those empty shells
Memories long past
You trapped me
I have nothing left
Alone in desolation

Why do I need to cry?
You have only beaten me
You abandoned me
Again and again
Lost without salvation

My innocence was stolen
Paradise forever lost
You raped my pride
Right in front of me
I hate you

You can never believe
All that I've suffered
I refuse to give in
I will not be weak
And be what you want

These tears mean nothing
At least to you
You're the cause
Realize that
Suffer for every drop

Denied of hope
The sustaining light
Anything left to live for
Stolen again and again
Never to be held once more

You remind me of something
All my painful thoughts
All that I have and have not
You remind me
Of all my empty tears.
