You asked where it all fell apart
And I replied
"We both loved you the most"
She'd never admit it out loud
But all she truly wanted
For someone to look at all her power and strength
And see how terribly fragile she was
You bought me roses
I watched them die

You told me you loved me
I believed every lie
A star by night
A flower by day
A crown on her head
But the world on her shoulders

A smile on her face
Scars on her wrist
Always in a race
And trying to find some light

Lover on her bed
But demons in her head
Sweet songs on her lips
But she is whispering under her breath

She smiles with everyone
But she cries all night
She trusts no-one  
Saying that everything's alright
