I can fake a smile. I can pretend that I'm okay .... but I'm only in denial. My hearts been chained I've been imprisoned by shame.. I'm fine F for forsaken I for insecure N for neurotic and E for EMPTY. A few more **** a couple more beers and I'll be able to ignore my pain till Tomorrow that doesn't change the fact that I'm Hollow. Caught between empty sheets I lie awake and think of a way so I can drown in your tranquil eyes.. The grass will never be greener my heartstrings tug at a brighter tomorrow. A few more lonely nights a couple more mind numbing days and I just might live to see the light without its enemy, sorrow. Tears run down my cheek today my dear but I'll never blame maybe tomorrow I'll learn to live without the pain.... Caught between empty sheets the monsters inside my mind will surely haunt me ,the more the better all I have to do is understand your honest letter...
