Damaged Goods
I smile when my heart is aching
I smile even when it's breaking
I smile to pretend like I'm not crying
They say sticks and stones may break my bones
But damn atleast those heal
Unlike me
All I am is pain and sarrow
But if you cover that with glitter, plushies, and laughter
Than everything is okay
They say that we accept the love we think we deserve
Well I guess I must think so lowly of myself
Love...yeah right
When you feel worthless
It's not easy to believe people see your worth
But it's easy to fall for it
No one wants to play with a used toy
And if they do it's only until they get bored
Then they leave me damaged even more
