Well-Used Crayon

this is an unfinished piece... just like me.


***

tonight u said
life's been easy for me
well it's time for u
to shut up and see
i haven't always been
happy like this
i haven't always had
the life that i wished
do you realize
the bruises that i have?
not just the physical
even the mental are bad
my heart must be
in ten thousand shreds
but yet it keeps on ticking
and my blood is still red

(chorus?)i am still the same ol me
even though u found out so much
i am still the same ol me
even though the secrets made me blush
I am still the same ol me
even though i have a new plan
I am still the same ol me
just like a well used crayon

don't u go dissin
all that i got goin on
cuz my friend if you had
just one of my shoes on
you wouldn't make it one more
step without the help of Him
He is my sharpener
He is my brightener
He redressed me
when my paper rubbed off

(bridge?)You can take away my skin
and see all my layers
you can take away my pointed edge
and see a softer side
you still won't know the half
of everything i've painted
and everyone that i have touched
or been touched by...
