Behind

I’m trapped between the doors of deceit and running away from despair I’m trying to laugh away my anger and instead of coughing, breathe fresh air Behind the walls of discomfort I put a mask on for the outside world but I’m in pain and inside I’m dying slowly catching my tear drops that fall like rain I appear to be stronger outside like the picket fences that’s built for safety But anytime I’m behind it the heart always seems to break Me! Tell me how can I escape from thee? I hide behind tears because it’s the only thing I know I’ve Cried for so long I always run away when something goes wrong I hide behind a song And If somebody loves you, wont they always love you? Or do they hide behind what’s True? BEHIND ME IS INNOCENT LOVE!
