I&#039;ve never told a lie and that makes me a liar, I&#039;ve never made a bet but we gamble with desire, I&#039;ve never lit a match with intent to start a fire but recently the flames are getting out of control<br /> - All Time Low: Jasey Rae

Watching a loved one die
Hurting them and making them cry
Acting as if you’re fine, as far as the eye can see
The sad truth is that you will never be

It is something you may feel
Some wounds that won’t ever heal

Powerful expressions of the heart
An emotion people use to make art
Inside of everyone there is pain
Now we have everything to lose, and nothing to gain

In case you didn't notice the beginning of each line spells out what is pain, its an acrostic and i had to do like a ton of these for a project
