The truth hurts,
this we know.
Sometimes we choose,
not to let it show.

The armor is tough.
It has grown this way.
And some hope,
it chooses to stay.

We think we can handle it,
then breaking from the knowledge.
Bit by bit.

Scanning my mind,
trying to find,
the true emotion I hide.
They can't be seen,
but they mean,
a world of different things.

Lost in the world.
Never to come out.
But they're inside,
wandering about.

It's true,
but not apparent,
visible but not seen.
All that is available to me.

What happens when someone,
pushes to far,
and it's no longer a joke?
The lasting friendship,
goes up in smoke.

Once you tear down a wall,
it's hard to rebuild.
Especially when the pain,
feels this real.

Some may think it's okay,
say you're alright.
But we all know,
you can't win this fight.

Why can't you see?
I'm not just fine.
You'll never know,
because you are blind.
Blind to the fact,
we were all hurt by you.

It seems I'm invisible,
like I don't really matter.
Then, you make me feel,
like I've never felt before.
I'm no longer just a bore.

Isn't it strange,
how one person can make a difference.
His voice, so soothing.
The jokes, so flippant.

That one person makes my day.
Always makes me feel a certain way.
I can't believe it's real.
This feeling he makes me feel.

Covered by a blanket of snow.
Our fate is all but known.
We seek to find,
the answer in time.

The fantasies are sealed,
spinning around like a wheel.
Seeking to find,
all known to the mind.

It may never be known.
The possibility is set in stone.
The cancer is revealed,
far from home.

The little girl,
sitting by herself,
waiting for someone,
to come and rescue her.
She's been there,
for many years.

She feels the pain,
everyday she lives it.
Her heart is broken,
everytime she thinks about it.
Wishing, just wishing,
the pain could finally stop.

The look in her eyes,
is lost and confused.
She wonders,
"Why did this,
have to happen to me?"

Her blue eyes,
never shine like they used to.
The smile she always wore,
will not come back again.
She screams out.

Her sorrow is heart-breaking.
I just wish someone could make it end.
For her,
but sadly no one ever can.

Come into the light,
open up your mind,
to change inside.
Let it flow,
throughout the night.

Let them hear you calling.
Make them hear you scream.
Show them what your made of.
Let the light shine out.

One day they will realize,
how wrong they were.
Don't you listen to them.
What they're saying,
doesn't matter anyways.

Just truly know,
you have a light that glows,
deep inside of you.
Don't be scared,
to let it shine.

It may be hidden,
under all the heart-ache,
but it can come out,
if you jet let it.
