We cannot learn without pain


Verse#1
My whole life is just a twisted story,
Why can't I explain myself?
I've kept my heart under lock and key,
Why can't I break my shell?
I've grown weary of your never ending questions,
You have no right to know,
I'm growing tired of your false courtesy,
My past is mine to show,



PreChorus:
I won't make it any longer,
I'm walking out the door,
Turning my back on all your hatred,
I can't take this anymore,



Chorus:
It wasn't supposed to be this way,
You didn't deserve to know,
Your the reason I drifted away,
Your the reason I stand alone,
You tore it all from me,
Turned my heart to solid stone,
Your the reason that I'm afraid,
Your the reason I lost my soul,



Verse#2
This isn't what I wanted,
This wasn't meant to be,
Why can't can't I get what I have wished for,
Why won't you let me be me,
Why must you treat me like an outcast,
Blackened bones will break my fall,
I feel just like a slave here,
Coming at your beckoned call



Prechorus:
I won't make it any longer,
I'm walking out the door,
Turning my back on all your hatred,
I can't take this anymore,


Chorus:
It wasn't supposed to be this way,
You didn't deserve to know,
Your the reason I drifted away,
Your the reason I stand alone,
You tore it all from me,
Turned my heart to solid stone,
Your the reason that I'm afraid,
Your the reason I lost my soul,



Verse#3
You couldn't just look away,
You couldn't just turn around,
I won't let you control me,
My head is bloodied but not bowed,
I'm breaking from this waste land,
No more brands upon my skin,
I'm done living on me knees,
I am repenting all my sins,




Prechorus:
I won't make it any longer,
I'm walking out the door,
Turning my back on all your hatred,
I can't take this anymore,




Chorus:
It wasn't supposed to be this way,
You didn't deserve to know,
Your the reason I drifted away,
Your the reason I stand alone,
You tore it all from me,
Turned my heart to solid stone,
Your the reason that I'm afraid,
Your the reason I lost my soul,




Chorus:
It wasn't supposed to be this way,
You didn't deserve to know,
Your the reason I drifted away,
Your the reason I stand alone,
You tore it all from me,
Turned my heart to solid stone,
Your the reason that I'm afraid,
Your the reason I lost my soul,

Sorry for the lack of depth. It needs some work.
