I try to fall asleep
And dream my tears away.
I just can’t shake the feeling
That no one ever stays.
They see my pain;
The scars of yesterday,
So they just stay away,
No one to lean on;
No one to whom I can pray;
There is no God
In a world so astray.
Put on a fake smile;
Pretend you’re okay.
Just walk away.
The pain in my chest swells,
A reminder of the fateful day.
What made me deserve
Such a high price to pay?
If only someone could come by
And make me feel okay.
But for now, they stay away,
