Hell

I hide my scars
And tell the lies
Hopeful days
Past and died
Silent tears I cried
Burning scars to hide
Fear rising up inside
I don’t understand
The life you live
The pain you hide
The lies you shield
Desperate moves
Made in time
Tried so hard
Fell so fast
Down in the dark
Broken by none
Live this life
Life of lies
This is my prison
This is my jail
Locked away in this hell
