Crying In The Dark

Under the cover of darkness,
Does the mask turn to dust,
Open the floodgates,
And let them rust.

Dark feelings resurface,
Hurt and betrayal,
When one feels all this,
Does he still believe in angels?

Memories appear,
That were long forgotten,
They bring chaos with them,
As you witness your own destruction.

Unleash those feelings,
For this moment, right now,
Under this cover of darkness,
To no one, you shall bow.

But when the light returns,
The mask will find its way back,
The gates will close,
And from within they'll attack.

Until they're released,
They won't quiet down,
When the shadows are gone,
Your spirit will be bound.

Words of discouragement,
Its poison seeps in,
They tie you down,
And torture you, within.

Put the pain in a bottle,
Close it for now,
Be on your way,
Resume the facade, most foul.

Its about to bubble over,
The lid itself is trembling,
The gates are about to burst open,
The cycle, again is beginning.

Go to your corner,
Turn off the lights,
Let no one see you,
As you slowly die inside.

Hidden

Its all pointless,
Why try at all,
We were born to suffer,
From the moment we could crawl.

Would you call life, fair?
When you're just choking with pain,
Inner screams are drowned out,
While hopes and dreams are slain.

Left with nothing,
What could you feel?
Despair? Anger?
Or emotions unreal?

Fair warning,
Reality is where you are,
Control those emotions,
Or you won't get far.

Hide the hurt,
Hide your past,
Hide what you feel,
Put on that mask.

Soldier on and deceive,
The world around you,
Bottle everything inside,
So they won't have a clue.

How twisted you are,
How frustrated inside,
So tired of everyone,
That you'd rather just die.

The never ending facade,
The mounting sorrow,
I pray for you, dear one,
For the strength to endure tomorrow.

Hear Me Cry

Can you hear me cry?
Tears of sorrow and pain?
Here, stuck in the past,
Inaudible by the rain.

Can you tell me,
Why did you say,
I wasn't important enough,
In every possible way...

I wonder, where we will go,
Will we ever be the same,
If we go our separate ways,
I wonder who's to blame?

After all this time,
Can you hear me cry?
When all you said,
Were nothing but lies.

Can you hear me cry?
Tears of a broken heart,
How did it feel?
When you tore it apart?

My Best Friend

Even if my memories fade,
Even if my heart stopped beating,
Even if I forget the story of us,
I will always remember that feeling.

My pillar of strength,
My heart's secret keeper,
My guardian of hope,
For which my feelings grow deeper.

You won't let me fall,
That much I know,
So hold my hand tight,
And never let me go.

In many ways,
I love you so,
But i fear one day,
You really might go.

Who am I to stop you,
If there's someone else out there,
You deserve the best,
If it makes you happy, I don't care.

Break my heart,
Turn it to dust,
I'll do anything to see that smile,
Even IF breaking it myself is a must.

Your my best friend,
And i love you in more ways than one,
But i know one day,
Our friendship will be done...
