I am the girl in the corner The one you simply don’t see Years of perfected camouflage So you will never notice me I don’t make any ripples Wouldn’t dare step out of line Nobody can hear my voice I hope that they will sometime I live in a world of fear I’m not sure why I’m afraid I have found inside my head The place where nightmares are made A place buried deep within Filled full of darkness and dread Breaching the edge of reason And icy cold like the dead Visions writhing and ghostly Fleeting outside of my grasp Yet returning to haunt me I breathe pain in a silent gasp I want to be comfortably numb All the way down to my core Not to feel all this heartache Not to know hurt anymore Pills and ***** can’t save me Why can’t you hear when I scream Desperate depressed and lost In a land of broken dreams

The girl in the corner
I am the girl in the corner The one you simply don’t see Years of perfected camouflage So you will never notice me I don’t make any ripples Wouldn’t dare step out of line Nobody can hear my voice I hope that they will sometime I live in a world of fear I’m not sure why I’m afraid I have found inside my head The place where nightmares are made A place buried deep within Filled full of darkness and dread Breaching the edge of reason And icy cold like the dead Visions writhing and ghostly Fleeting outside of my grasp Yet returning to haunt me I breathe pain in a silent gasp I want to be comfortably numb All the way down to my core Not to feel all this heartache Not to know hurt anymore Pills and ***** can’t save me Why can’t you hear when I scream Desperate depressed and lost In a land of broken dreams
