Apr 2014
On the outside she's poised and graced
But on the inside she's in a dangerous place
Withering in self pity
The tears they slide down her face

In this city of despair
No one to confide in
In this city of despair
No where to hide

But on the outside
She is fine
And on the outside
She is laughing
And on the the outside
She is smiling

In this city of despair
No one to confide in
In this city of despair
No where to hide

But on the inside
She is screaming
And on the inside
She is bleeding
And on the inside
She is dying

In this city of despair
No one to confide in
In this city of despair
No where to hide
For a friend
