She mostly just hurts when she smiles.
I've only ever seen her laugh... while she is hurting.
She shows no concern for the way things work,
she'd much rather just know that... things are working.
And she hopes and prays for so called better days.
And I think I may have found them if she ever stays.
She mostly just sighs when she cries.
I've only just noticed this and... she might be used to it.
I know it seems like I want everything,
but if you just get close to me,
let me kiss your rosy cheek.
That's all I need.
She never really heard about self worth,
and in the mirror she never knew why she was staring.
She never much said her favorite word,
And her worst fear was nothing, the silence was blaring.
Now she couldn't love a thing again.
Scared to death of dying without him.
She mostly just hurts when she smiles.
I've only ever seen her laugh... while she is hurting.
She shows no concern for the way things work,
she'd always much rather just... know that things are working.
I know it seems like I want everything,
but if you just get close to me,
let me kiss your rosy cheek.
That's all I need.
