Exceeding limits of my own
I’ve kept with you to this day
But today you stand-alone

These wounds I can’t conceal
They run too deep and are too real
Your attempts arrive too late
Cuts you made me will not heal
My time has come to cope with fate
Synchronize with hope and wait
Watch me fall between the cracks you’ve made
To find and reach my expiration date

You used to hold me with all your might
Love that bound me in one piece
Cure and feed my appetite
Hunger that won’t ever cease

The strength you had began to wither
Creating these black holes within me

These wounds I can’t conceal
They run too deep and are too real
Your attempts arrive too late
Cuts you made me will not heal
My time has come to cope with fate
Synchronize with hope and wait
Watch me fall between the cracks you’ve made
To find and reach my expiration date

Cast my remains in the fire
See me burn to ashes and expire
Times before I have risen
And now I shall continue again

Although my body shall begin to fade
My spirit will never die
Restore my body, anew and remade
Let my soul free to fly

Impressive . . . and you're only sixteen, right?

I like this.
