You think I am a happy person... I know I dont trust you enough To show you my pain. -- She wears a smile And shares her warmth, She wipes her tears And hides her scars; You see the rainbow she exudes, Because she doesn't trust you-- With her festering darkness And the thunderstorm she survived. She hides her demons Behind masks of her strength, And iron will-- While they devour her from within; You will never get to see it, She will never let you in... No one will have the power To hurt her - never again.

They don't get to see it
You think I am a happy person... I know I dont trust you enough To show you my pain. -- She wears a smile And shares her warmth, She wipes her tears And hides her scars; You see the rainbow she exudes, Because she doesn't trust you-- With her festering darkness And the thunderstorm she survived. She hides her demons Behind masks of her strength, And iron will-- While they devour her from within; You will never get to see it, She will never let you in... No one will have the power To hurt her - never again.
When you try to heal yourself, but bandage yourself too tight and can't move anymore.. You must relearn to trust again.
