Pain
suffering in silence
I pretend to be happy to keep the family alive
Wearing a ring scared with hurt
Love don't live here but still I stay
I can't let my neighbors know I have failed
No love for me just pain
With this ring I commit to live a lie, pretending happiness live in these walls
I live on my knees praying for an open door
Only in death will I get peace
I choose to sit in pain
I choose to cry
I choose to live in this lie
I can't let my neighbors know I have failed
Loveless, no passion within
I call on death
When will my pain end
I am suffering in silence
