Never

green eyes
they lore you in
but do you truly understand
the frown behind the smile

i hide beihind a laugh or smile
something to make you turn away
i cannot let you see
the pain i keep underneath

inside i am dieing
but to you i am fine
my heart continues to break
even though youll never know

ill never tell you
everything that kills me everyday
i could never let you in
for ill never mean enough
for you to comprehend

youll nod your head
but you never even heard
a single word i ever said

i never meant all the things
you swore i meant to you
you filled my head with lies
but i will not cry
for that is what you want
i will not let you
break me

but the tears will come
i will not hold back
but ill never let you see
that you have broken me
youll never gain my pride

id rather die
then shed tears over you
im missing you
but youll never know
i still love you
but ill never show
my feelings again
never
