I'm choking on words
I'll never say
Written in pen
They smear and fade
But when the sun
Rises at dawn
Maybe then
You'll hear my song

Hope the wound heals
But it never does
Maybe that's cuz
I'm at war with love
Can't keep my feelings
Hidden away inside
Don't want the morning
Stop, the sun can't rise
I only like the nighttime
See the stars above
But that's when I am lonely
Cuz I can't feel your love

You say you love
Me but I'm sure
That you just still
Love her more
You keep whispering
Her name in your sleep
As I drown in the sound
Of my own heart beat

All this pain

Will soon be gone

As I become

More withdrawn

I lose the pain

It’s almost dawn

And yet again

I’m just a pawn

The game we play

Goes on and on

I lost you then

And you’re still gone

Teary eyes

Broken heart

Life has torn

Me apart

It comes in waves

I close my eyes

Hold my breath

Count the lies

See the stars

In the skies

Feel the pain

Watch the sun rise

And suddenly

I realize

“Happy” is just

A lame disguise

(To see what’s on

The inside

Is to be the one

Who’s truly wise)
