»Self-pity«

by Laetitia Smith

You can cover up your scars with lies and deceit.
You can fabricate fairy tales that seem solid as concrete.

But you're wrong in thinking,
So wrong in thinking...
That everything you don't have, will make you happy.

Your whole love's a lie.
She never fails to try,
Not giving in to your "buts"
But you've already given up

You've tried praying a new prayer,
No good, when God's not there.

No nothing can change you,
Not even God will try to.
Because you're so worthless,
There's no guiding light through this.

Everything you want is broken or too far,
But nothing matters,
Because it can't change who you are.
