Cover Up

Keep the secret that everything is fine we don't see what we cannot hear Cover your precious ears The tears drip down blending with the blood Everything goes as it should We fear for the worst but we're never prepared for the things that happen next in a twisted spiral that is our life We expect death and woe Friend turned the foe But will it ever end? No one can ever know because there is nothing that will show when the hurt will end If we keep the secret that everything is fine Faster seems that the time has passed We cut away the shame cry away the pain Cover up your bruises with beauty cream
