Reality throws bricks at me.

I used to dodge,

I used to try and catch them,

I let them hit me, pretended it didn't hurt,

Let them hit me, pretended it was a coincidence,

Let them hit me, pretended it was an accident,

Let them bruise me, I blamed myself,

Let them bruise me, I tired to fix it all,

Let them bruise me, I begged Oh God,

Let them make me bleed, I screamed only in my head,

Let them tear my skin, I can't do take this no more,

Let them crack my bones, I can't stand this any longer.

Reality throws bricks at me,

Who am I to fix it all?

I really resonated with the pain in your words. It's raw and brutal, I absolutely love it!
