Behind the lies and painted smiles Lies wounds that cannot heal The tormented ache of a forgotten world And a heart that can no longer feel The outward laugh, a forgotten touch Defy the darkness inside The horror of a mind debauched and lost In a pool of tears, uncried A quick embrace and wanten love Beleaguered by apathy and grime A soulless mess, a repulsive truth. Evil lingering in an languid mind

Behind the Smiles
Behind the lies and painted smiles Lies wounds that cannot heal The tormented ache of a forgotten world And a heart that can no longer feel The outward laugh, a forgotten touch Defy the darkness inside The horror of a mind debauched and lost In a pool of tears, uncried A quick embrace and wanten love Beleaguered by apathy and grime A soulless mess, a repulsive truth. Evil lingering in an languid mind
