Hush darling you don't have to speak
There's pain in your eyes and it make a you look weak.

2am and you're chasing back time
Hoping your past doesn't haunt you this time.

No matter how broken, how tired, how grey
You don't let them see, to them you're okay.

Nobody really cares so you make yourself look strong
But beneath your empty surface, everything is wrong.

They don't see the scars or hear the piercing words
Because you put on a smile and you laugh through the tears.

It's the girl in your science class
Nobody ever remembers her name
She the quiet one who always gets picked last
Remember? The one you called lame.

It's the guy in the hallway
He always says hi
You just walk away
He went home and cried

It's that teacher you mess with
But what you really don't know
Her sister just died
bet you feel bad now though

It's the girl walking down the hall
"What the heck is she wearing"
She has no money at all
But you're too busy not caring

You may think you know someone
And really have no clue
They're slowly coming undone
Who knows maybe you're just broken too

I'm right here
I've
Always been
Here

Standing right in front of you
Said you were scared but everyone is
Scared to loose
What they didn't know
They had

But you have me
See
I'm
Here

Afraid someone will break you
You end up breaking yourself
There's no way they'll break through
The wall you build up to protect yourself

You put yourself on a high up thrown
You think it will keep you safe
Then you slowly break yourself down  
And try to carry the weight of grief

Let it go
Unbuild your wall
Or you'll never grow
Trust someone, for once to catch you when you fall

Hidden
Secrets, Memories, Marvels
Beneath you
Beneath me
I only see so deep
Through you
You see but the empty
Surface of me

It is Remembering
When you layed in Daddy's lap
Nestled in his arms
He seems to free the world from harm.
It is Seeing
Passed the perfection
ugly, too big, or not good enough
You hate yourself and darling you're too rough.
It is Realizing
Fairytales don't come true
You don't beleive in anything
Back then you believed in everything.
It is Emotions
Changing from carefree to worry
Thinking too much or not at all
What once could slay dragons, now feel much too small.
