She walks looking down
she walks with a twist
Her real self concealed
her real self doesn't exist

He walks like he owns them
he walks with self esteem
He puts on a face
he's who they want him to be

She works two jobs
she works herself to the bone
She's caring for a child
she's all on her own

He's in the family buisness
he's tired of it all
He wants to be his own person
he doesn't want to hide behind a wall

She's scared to tell her parents
she's terrified what they'll do
She sits with a razor blade
she cries over her passed and future  too

These people you see
we see them day to day
But we don't see the hurt
and suffering in every way

Six billion people roam this earth
day to day camoflauging reality
Six billion people scared to death
of who they can really be

When you see a person
what thoughts cross your mind?
There's a story to each
and a truth behind each lie
Jolene Perron Aug 2010
It's a lie,
it's a twist,
it's a word behind their back.

It's a poem,
it's a fist,
it's the confidence we lack.

It's the truth,
there's no lies,
and it's everything we know.

It's begging,
it's reason,
for you to never go.

The maturity,
the age,
the hormones that race.

The anger,
the frusteration,
written across our face.

It's life.
at it's worst,
and there's nothing we can do.

It's highschool,
it's drama,
it's me trapped with you.

Words fly,
hearts crushed,
life doesn't make sense.

Guys cry,
girls weep,
we all put up that fence.

I say,
it's about time,
to break those fences down.

Time to see,
what's really hidden,
deep beneath our frowns.

No lies,
no acts,
just truth down to the core.

What would,
this life me,
if we were to hurt no more?

Constant battle,
constant fear,
hidden deep within me.

Look farther,
look deeper,
and tell me what you see.

I want,
I need,
for this to all make sense.

I have,
the urge to,
please break down this fence.

Let's begin,
from the start,
let's sort all of this out.

No screaming,
no crying,
there is no reason to shout.

It's life,
it's drama,
it's highschool at the worst.

I want to smile,
let's be happy,
be free of all this hurt.

Her bright blue eyes,
well they make you soar.
Her laugh and smile,
leave you wanting more.

My eyes just brown,
my body not as fine.
Your smile and laugh,
leave me wishing you were mine.

I'm jealous of her,
and all she has in you.
You want her,
and I'll be alone with nothing to do.

You were mine, baby,
for a pretty little while.
But then you left and ran,
for what seems like miles.

I've tried so hard,
so reach your heart.
But there's so much space,
we're torn apart.

I am not nothing,
but someone who makes you mad.
I wish I could be more,
I remember what we had...

She's everything and more,
a beautiful young lady.
I can't help but cry,
envy her maybe.

I can't help but picture,
you two together.
Cuddleing, spending time,
close in stormy weather.

But I'm alone on the couch,
all curled up just me.
No one's here, you're there,
with her you're gonna be...

She walks on a road of twists,
the turns going every which way.
She makes choices and decisions,
anything but easy days.

But the days are becoming simplier,
a little happier too.
With someone who comforts her,
a boy who calls her boo.

He stands by her side,
a very best friend.
He lets her know this is not,
and will never be the end.

When everyone else is yelling,
he helps her stand tall.
They're all cheering, baby,
fall, *****, fall.

But he holds her close,
he kisses her lips.
He's holding her up high,
his hands on her hips.

They're soaring through the wind,
no matter how far apart.
They're always near to eachother,
close within the heart.

Your eyes matched the sky,
bright and blue today.
This moment was just perfect,
in each and every way.

My mind is spinning,
in a hundred different ways.
I'm searching for all the words,
the right ones to say.

Your lips were on mine,
nothing could compare.
The way you looked at me,
your fingers in my hair.

My breath was stopping,
I felt I couldn't breathe.
All I knew was that,
I wanted you here with me.

Your hands upon my back,
running up and down.
I never wanted to go away,
never leave this town.

Your body so close,
feeling you against me.
This is everything I wanted,
everything we could be.

Your smile spreading wide,
across a familiar face.
I never wanted it to end,
didn't want to leave this place.

But I'm sure we'll back there,
I hope it's some time soon.
I silently sit and cry,
wishing upon a moon.

That feeling you gave me,
it was unlike any before.
You left me screaming at the stars,
baby, I want more.

You're everything I fell for,
way back when.
Everything I need now,
you're more than my good friend.

You've always had a place,
special in my heart.
Even when you left last year,
and we've been far apart.

I'll never forget the day,
I'll never forget this time.
The moments we spent together,
the moments you were mine.

I tell you I only take part of the blame,
but in my mind I take it all.
I act to them like I'm doing much better,
but all I can do lately is fall.

I wish you would look at me and see,
I wish you would understand.
I feel like it was ALL my fault...
I wish you would be the one to hold my hand...

You were always there when things were wrong,
when things got way too tough.
Even though I love you with all of my heart,
I'm afraid lately love is not enough.

I'm blaming myself for everything,
and I have since we began.
I'm screaming out to the world, darling,
won't you hold my hand?

I want to be able to walk away together,
from all the rubble and dust.
Leave this place and all of the ashes,
getting coffee together is a must.

I wish you knew, darling,
that I blame myself everyday.
And I wish I could change it all,
in every single way.

I wish you knew, sweetheart,
all I want is just one more chance.
For you to look me in the eyes,
to take and hold my hands.

To tell me it's not true,
my thoughts are merely lies.
It's not all my fault,
and you're coming to stay by my side.

I miss you like you wouldn't believe,
and I'm willing to start again.
Please say you'll give me the chance,
and be, again, my very best friend...<3

You're all disappearing ...
                                                          Drifting...
                                                                                Leaving....

And I'm sitting here alone...
                                                           Watching....
                                                                                  Helpless....

You're walking away from me...
                                                          My best friend ....
                                                                                   Leaving...

This time you chose to walk away...
                                                          No more chances...
                                                                                   Leaving...

There's a fog and it's getting deeper...
                                                          You're disappearing...
                                                                                    You're going away...

I'm feel alone and I'm getting scared...
                                                           Save Me....
                                                                                     Help Me...

The blade is getting closer...
                                                            Take it...
                                                                                     Burry it...

The blood bleeds a scarlet red...
                                                             Feeling...
                                                                                      Feeling...

I can't stop this time...
                                                              This is it...
                                                                                       Final line...

The battle lines have been drawn...
                                                                 I'm fading...
                                                                                         I'm crying...


                                                                                                                I'm screaming...
                                                                                                            Can You Hear Me?
