The Tale Of A Lonely Heart

Some people cry and some just stand by.
They laugh and smile.
They say everything will be fine.
But I draw the thin line.
I fake that smile and walk that extra mile.

To see you, to be with you.
And if you walked a day in my shoes, you'd understand what I've been through.
Trying to get out of here is harder than i realise.
I use to think that if I blinked you'd be here next to me.

In your dream, where you could never hear me scream.
I sink deeper, darker, smaller.
Into a place they once called my grave but I call home, I'm alone, I'm alone.
In my darkness, my sadness will wallow in my pain.
I was vain to think you were there for me.

That you were here to protect me.
Sitting in the forest, filled with darkness.
With a single candle light to guide me, I was lost to my awareness around me.I tried to hurt myself, But I lost myself.

Inside my lonely life, just waiting to draw that knife.
And draw those dark red lines, and face those painful lies.

I don't want you to disappear from me.
