Forced smiles denting the slippery cheeks
Drape the unsettling naked truth.

Clumsy remarks from those long muted lips
Confirm a heart full of voids.

These holes in my curtain  fall shy of sunlight,
My dreams dreaming stars on the inside,
These strings scar my fingers every night,
Driving me to sing out the pain one might

And I do not need to stand before you,
When you can just use my sight.
