If you haven't noticed The fake smile on my face Or the forced laugh I've created Or the empty darkness in my eyes Don't cry if you see my grave Darkness and demons Silence and nightmares Screams and lies Have always been my friends I'm always reaching out for shadows Because they know my name I can touch shadows Because they can see me Another excuse Another lie To keep you from knowing I want to say goodbye Lies are here to haunt Because roses aren't always red Violets not exactly blue Society lies, and you know it too If you didn't notice Don't scream for my name Once you see my grave How can you if you're screaming for a stranger?

You Can't Scream For Strangers
If you haven't noticed The fake smile on my face Or the forced laugh I've created Or the empty darkness in my eyes Don't cry if you see my grave Darkness and demons Silence and nightmares Screams and lies Have always been my friends I'm always reaching out for shadows Because they know my name I can touch shadows Because they can see me Another excuse Another lie To keep you from knowing I want to say goodbye Lies are here to haunt Because roses aren't always red Violets not exactly blue Society lies, and you know it too If you didn't notice Don't scream for my name Once you see my grave How can you if you're screaming for a stranger?
