Claw out your soul

Her skin was peeling back
And there was fire in her veins
Exposing muscles bleeding
Writhing in pain

Nails are scratching eyes out
And lips are laying lies
About a girl from nowhere
With betrayal in her eyes

Running down long corridors
Hiding in the dark
Ripping both her lungs out
Isolation leaving its mark

Her feet carried her no further
There was nowhere else to go
She clawed out her soul today
She never stooped so low

She let the hatred flow freely
And lied to herself times ten
She tore out her insides
And burned out her heart again
