Hiding in the dark corner crying on your knee.
Tear stained skin gathers all around your face.
Turn the lights back one and try to cover it with makeup.
Hope no one calls you on your humiliating secret.
You wish your life wouldn’t be this way.
You always tell yourself you are going to change.
Yet still you always end up back in that dark corners refuge.
You know how you are supposed to feel, so you pretend
that you're filled with joy, but you are the one who knows what
really lays inside your soul. Just keep away from the temptation
of tears, and the dreams that gamble with death.
Just lie in your mother's arms. Wrap yourself up tight
knowing all the while that tomorrow everything won’t be alright.
