I see how you hide behind your smile
How you lie about how things are
The marks on your wrists tell the truth
The truth you try to hide from me
Me of all people
You don't know how much I love you
You think you're not loved
You think everything's your fault
But little by little it's tearing away at your skin
Chipping and eroding the harsh ocean waves at such an innocent cliff
But little by little I try to add more sand
Back the cliff in right so it won't erode
Then a hurricane cakes
And I think you're gone forever
You can't add to something that is no longer there
But then I see a speck
Just a little speck of what was before a massive cliff
