"And in a single kiss..the world changed. Two hearts became one, and two lost souls found one love to last for all of time"

I am selfish, I am weak, I am useless, I’m a freak
You use me and abuse me, hate and anger
Shoot straight through me
I am fat, I am stupid, I am dull, I am ruthless
No hope, only fears
Drowning me in tears
I’m a coward, I am cold, I am simple, I am untold
It’s a battle everyday
That comes with a price to pay
