Been Branded

I wish I knew what you think of me
Maybe you're not sure what to think
Damn the consequences
I'm like an addict on the brink

Climbing the walls
Trying not to let it show
They all think I'm keeping it together
I'm too good, they'll never know

The craziness, the emptiness
That fill my nights and days
In search of that something
To fill the hole and show me the way

I am lost
Everyone mistakes the words I say
One touch, a moment with you
Now I'll never be the same

I've got to get myself out
Before I'm fit to be tied
God knows I've tried to be "good"
I've tried and I've tried

I have this sinking feeling
I'm doing things I didn't think I'd do
I'm tired of trying to believe
What just isn't true

You see, I've been branded
Mark left on my skin
I feel it still, but now
The burn comes from within
