I gotta keep myself wide awake But sleep is knocking in my eyes A weariness still lies within my gaze And despair painted upon my face Fighting silently within my crying soul Are the invisble monsters that I created Terrifying me even on my sweetest daydreams Unleashing the petrifying pain Engulfing me with the illusion That the sunrise will be near Unveiling the mask that I built To feign the cascading tear But I gotta make a straight face And smile as though nothing bad is happening Cause none will care If I'm the one who needed saving

Beauty in Pain
I gotta keep myself wide awake But sleep is knocking in my eyes A weariness still lies within my gaze And despair painted upon my face Fighting silently within my crying soul Are the invisble monsters that I created Terrifying me even on my sweetest daydreams Unleashing the petrifying pain Engulfing me with the illusion That the sunrise will be near Unveiling the mask that I built To feign the cascading tear But I gotta make a straight face And smile as though nothing bad is happening Cause none will care If I'm the one who needed saving
