Cut and Stranded.

Understand me,
Cut and strand me.
Kick and punch and slap and slam me,
Beat me, hit me, hurt me, do it.
Feeling pain, there's nothing to it.

Cut me open,
Cracked and broken.
See my heart and lungs, all smokin',
Slice me, dice me, watch me bleed now,
Wonder why I stop to scream out.

Injured always,
Hating these days.
Trying hard to show my true face.
Running, hiding, clawing, biting,
Peaceful days have so much fighting.
