Stand there and watch,
Whilst I fall apart,
Ripping myself to shreds,
Like destruction is a form of art,
Watch me fall,
Don't walk on by,
Stand, be the audience,
Of the fall of the butterfly,
Stripped bare,
Completely raw,
My own doing,
No longer pure,
Watch me stare,
Into the nothingness the void,
Watch my departure,
Don't try to avoid,
Ripped and torn,
Battered inside,
I told myself I was ok,
A cover up, to myself I lied,
Denial refusal,
To believe the truth,
To compensate,
For my lost eternal youth,
Stand and watch me,
As I self destroy,
Destruction demolition,
Brings more pain not joy,
Watch me wither,
Crumple, double over,
Watch me with eyes,
That are not drunk with love but completely sober,
Watch me don't help,
Help is rejected,
I've no self worth,
Pain I've subjected,
Beating myself,
Mental massacres and wars,
Not someone to like,
Someone to abhor,
Intolerant to myself,
Watch me don't mend,
To my injured self,
I won't tend,
Watch don't turn away,
Watch me fall apart,
Watch me fail in life,
You saw it from the start.
