A Moment of Too Many

Head phones in her ears Afraid to hear her screams. She turns the volume up. Maybe she'll wake up from the dream. Cradling her self to sleep One moment of too many, All secrets, she's to keep Eyelids so heavy, music bleeding through her ears Wishing she would stop Hoping no one can hear. She's grabbing onto the ground Shaking herself,scared. Trying to calm down but no ones there to care. She cries herself to sleep waiting for the sun So she can look at her reflection And see what she has done. And she'll know it wasn't a dream Her cheeks are stained with streams Reminding her of last night Another moment she's forever going to keep.
