Crank up the shower and let the water pour.
          hopefully it can hide my tears.
Let the walls surround me
       and let them hear my laments.
I'll wash my body 'til it burns
        maybe it can lessen the pain I feel right now.
Time to rinse off.
          Let my sorrows be flushed down the drain, too.
          No one ever listens anyway.
Might as well dry off now
          and face the world again
with a pearly white smile.
