Drowning In a Darkness

Drowning in a darkness 
Of deep despair 
Believing the lies I hear 
And seeing truths not there 

See the rays of sunlight 
They shine upon your scars 
Reaching for that broken smile 
Among the hidden stars 

Hearing the tear drops 
Falling from your eyes 
Believe my hidden secrets 
And tell my stolen lies 

Bring me to the surface 
Give me air to breathe 
Let me see the sorrow 
Upon my broken dreams
