Everyone sees me smile all the time.
No one wonders if it's a disguise, my pain is something the world still denies.
I cry and cry when no one is nearby.
My mind is filled with thoughts questioning my life.
thoughts fill my mind on a late-night drive.
Darkness lives around me
it screams in my ear my biggest fear.
My mind, the word unaware No lending hands to cure
My mind is a broken glass and my eyes can never see the green grass.
I return after my precious light to the scary whispers in the night.
darkness has turned to be a part of me, I feel like taking out my knife.
My dreams are all lost in hell when will I be out of this shell.
My biggest fear is going to sleep as that’s the time I always weep.
What evil have I done? what so deep? So much that my soul has to scream.
Darkness stalks my deepest fears and the result is my greatest tear.
When I wake up the devil did not flee, in the mirror it is his face I see.
My life so lost, my dreams are paused, and I know the demon is the cause.
The murderer of my dreams now all I hear are screams.
My weakness has let you free
But all I have is tears to cry as hell is something you have denied!
The world never cares, how is this fair?
From my life you will be banned.
I cry and feel the pain that will always remain in my vein.
We are being left alone to suffer our lives get tougher and, in the end, I have to plea Just to be set free!
