Behind all those giggles and smiles
There are tears of pain
Inside this emptiness
There's a boy , trying to be whole again
He writes long stories ,
Want someone to read between the lines
Look what he's upto
He tells it all in rhymes
He knows it's his own fault
But he never chose to be this way
Friends and enemies alike
No one comes his way
So don't tell him ,
how much you care
Because when the time comes
No one is there to share
He Dosent need the crowd
Just the one
But maybe he's doing it wrong
Because he can't find that someone
And he's given up hope and faith
He knows , He can't hide from fate
Still he has locked himself inside those doors
Unseen , living for just a few moments more
Living on borrowed time
He has to wait some more
Looking for the right time
Before he's gone
He wants to scream in their faces
And tell them what it's like to be
But all he can do is whisper
And hope someday they could see
That the little boy , Is gone for good
In peace , he'll be cold
He was there when no one else was
Empty stories needn't be told
Maybe love can change it all
Make him turn around
But no one loves him
In time , He will fall down
In time , in his mind
He knows whats true
He's wise , he can't survive
On borrowed time he's alive
Still he's holding on
Maybe somewhere in the crowd
Someone will look through those eyes
Behind all those lies
Someone will finally know why he cries
But in time ,
the little boy , will be gone for good
In peace , he'll be cold
He was there when no one else was
Empty stories needn't be told
The stars will still shine
And the crowd will still smile
But somewhere far away
It will rain
There will still be the sunrise
Ain't a thing that'll change
But somewhere far away
It will pain
From far away
Whispers will turn to screams
Empty echoes no one could hear
In time , it'll all be clear
That the little boy , Is gone for good
In peace , he'll be cold
He was there when no one else was
Empty stories needn't be told
