Many times
I have wanted to chop off
my roots of humanity
and fly away
I wanted out of this world
becasue I didn't belive I had a place
in it
Now, With this want
to break free of my bondage
comes an insatiable desire
for something more
for something better than this
cliche infested existence

So I search for him
always assuming
that some one will just fly down
and sweep me off my feet
and tear my past away from my memory
But each Some One
wants me to close my eyes
so he can kiss each eyelid
and fix me
Fix Me
But I am not Broken
I'm just a little banged up
A little too scared
Of you.

so please don't touch me
don't touch me
because it makes me remember
and I don't want to relive it again
I wanted to escape my past
not repeat it
so please don't touch me
I can't bare it
to be your burden
I can't bare it
to hurt you
as I cringe whem you reach for me
or cry with each kiss

I was never good enough anyway

so please
walk away now
before my heart leaves trails of tears
along your fingertips
as you try to wipe away my pain.
