That sparkle in your eye has gone
to a place nobody knows.
Your heart broke to pieces from the fall
to the hole where nobody goes.

And no one cares to ask at all
or to even understand.
It's hard to imagine the flight and fall
when you're safe in solid land.

No one ever knows what goes on behind the scenes.
It's not often filled with hope and your wildest dreams.
Pain does exist and it changes a person
But, I understand what goes on in your universe

But more, let me see

Where your smile and laugh has gone
I want to liberate your reality
of this pain that now feels just like home
but this isn't how life should be.

How can this be a life for someone like you?
You have dreams and goals that remain.
You used to see the light, it was always shining through.
You knew you could get through the cloud and rain.

But you refrain from telling us what goes on behind the scenes.
I feel like I'm losing you, like you lost sight of your dreams.
And, although I try. I really try. I will never understand what changed your universe
