Did she lie about her pain?
Did he make up all his fears?
Just because they can't be felt
in the hearts of all their peers?

It never seems to be that tough
until a bullet's through her head
It never seems to be that rough
until he’s overdosed in bed

Did she fake her deep depression?
Did he pretend to have anxiety?
Just because they can't be seen
in the eyes of their society?

It never seems to be that sad
until her farewell note is read
It never seems to be that bad
until he’s six-feet under dead

I rarely ask,
was I blinded to have let you
hold the dominance of my heart?

I sometimes question,
was it the moment that I met you
I knew I loved you from the start?

I often wonder,
was it your smile I miss so much
or pain we shared along the way?

I always imagine,
was I bound to lose your touch
to be drawn again to you someday?

I forever ponder,
was there a home for you and me
in the parting waves of me and you?

I tell myself,
that it was a love like the Red Sea
and our souls cannot remain as two

So many voices
but no one is talking

Sounds of footsteps
but no one is walking

Too many noises
but no one can hear

The deafening whispers
telling me to disappear
