It started when we got close,
When he started to open up to me,
When I started to read him like a book,
When I knew he was broken inside.
"I'm fine"
he'd tell me, 
pain in his eyes as the words struggled to free from his mouth, like he was almost...
Stuttering. 
From those words I knew,
I knew he was crying inside,
I knew it was growing stronger and rapidly taking over him.

I know now that it's ripping through him like a blade, and yet still he wears a smile...
A smile so blinding white and beautiful that the whole world freezes with astonishment.
I don't understand,
He seemed so happy to me...
What happened to him?
What has happened to the one person that I truly love?
It's destroyed through you,baby, its tore through everything you once were.
I can see it in your eyes, baby,
I'll free you from it,
I swear.
