Alone Laying in sweaty stained sheets With the ground below Covered in empty tin and glass A shallowness Starts to grow inside But is pushed to the darkness Faster than it can show "No one can see that." He thinks Positivity sparkles an outside shell That inside holds putrid and lorn feelings Hidden deep down and unwilling to show Everyday it gets harder But the "smile" never retreats Because if it ever were to He'll feel complete defeat

Hidden In Plain Sight
Alone Laying in sweaty stained sheets With the ground below Covered in empty tin and glass A shallowness Starts to grow inside But is pushed to the darkness Faster than it can show "No one can see that." He thinks Positivity sparkles an outside shell That inside holds putrid and lorn feelings Hidden deep down and unwilling to show Everyday it gets harder But the "smile" never retreats Because if it ever were to He'll feel complete defeat
