Truth is that I can't tell you
The exact way that I feel
The tears would fall endlessly
The scars I have will never heal

Truth is that you can't even handle it
Handle the pain I have in this heart
The way I've been absorbing this pain
Would tear your insides apart

My body still stands strong
Tall as a brick wall
But I feel so hollow inside
Like there's a hole

You see me in a way
That no one else sees me
I can tell you're trying
so hard to see what I see

But to be honest, you can't
Because my eyes only see pain
They see the horrific things
That would make anyone insane

It's a huge world war
Each day in my soul
It's just a matter of time
Before I completely fall

I must fall for the well being of my mind
Fall for the well being of those I hold dear
For if they knew the pain I feel inside
I would be someone that everyone would fear
