Don't Save Me

She's lost her wings,
She's lost her way,
But still she lives another day.
Although it seems eternal night,
She knows that she is forced to fight.

She looks around
And all she sees
Is what they wanted her to be.
But when their wants did not set sail,
They made her feel like she had failed.

Her every day is filled with fear,
With but an hour between the tears.
She tries, she fights, she takes a stand,
But no one seems to understand.

The emptiness is much to bear
And even when her friends are there,
She feels that she will fall apart,
With nothing but her broken heart.

And now she knows she has a home,
Her burdened heart is free to roam.
But though she's home,                    And though she's free,
She feels her heart is incomplete.

Her eyes are frozen, cold and grey,
Losing colour with every day.
And if you listen close
You'll hear her say,
"I'm not the one you want to save."
