Are You Proud of Me Yet?
Look at what I've become
Are you proud of what you've done?
I ripped through the flesh of my limits
I'm left with a broken grimace
Now I'm losing the few things I have left
I'm burning to ash
Are you proud of me yet?
But I can smile for you,
If that's what you want.
Forget about the pain
And the memories that haunt
Like a flame I can burn
And burn and burn and burn
But a candle only has so much wax
But that's not your concern.
No, I know.
Good grades and a smile.
Happy, not me.
That's who I need to be.
I'll stay in the tray you made
Like ash of a cigarette
Yes, I know my place.
Are you proud of me yet?
Nothing but a tool,
That's what I've become.
Don't believe who I am.
Are you proud of what you've done?
