Prove Myself

She can't outrun the nightmares
She can't hold onto dreams
She longs to have a safe haven
Her heart, torn at it's seams

She feels the need to prove herself
Everywhere she turns
She hates the way they look at her
Her reflection only burns

She's too scared to tell the truth
She hides from all her fears
Her blue eyes turn a cloudy gray,
Her face is streaked with tears

Eager just to find the light
She can't catch her breath
Someone who can hold her tight
Stop her from kissing death.
