You can only try
July 24, 2013
My smile when you see it it's quite stunning
but in reality it's always running away
because it's always afraid of how it's about to get played
by a blade that cuts my heart
When people tear me apart
Constantly testing my strength
pushing it ti it's furthest lengths
Wondering when it'll be over
life only pushes me further
Always trying to be careful
and watch my back
but someone always knocks me off track
And I always start to cry
if I can't figure out why
but once again I can only try
