Permanent

Running aimlessly in circles
just to end up back at the start
I'm waiting for a miracle
while the rest lay torn apart

You ask me how i'm feeling today
I know exactly what you want me to say
"I'm feeling fine"
But is fine even a feeling?
Deep down inside
i'm still reeling from past events
I could have sworn
for only me, you were sent

Permanent stain on my heart
Permanent wounds
killing me slowly from the start
Permanently broken
In more ways than I could count
I am bound to this ruined city
You have changed me--

Permanently
