Secret Pain
Before we grow up
We don't know evil
We only know love
Not any mean people
We go thru pain
While others get hurt
They're called isane
Names drug thru dirt
Stick by your family
Its all you got
And dont go rambling
Told, but not taught
They wear a smile
You hide the tears
For just a while
Now turns to years
Don't say a damn word
They won't believe you
Some thing's never heard
Very sad, but still true
Keep your lips sealed
Nope not a peep
The scars will heal still
Secrets you better keep
Nobody else can know
Nobody ever cares
No evidence to show
Just too damn scared
It never gets better
Cuts just get deeper
Eyes only get wetter
Strength becomes weaker
Your whispers so low
Fears are so strong
Just a dead end road
Been way too long
They have control
They have all the power
Nowhere to go
Ashamed of being a coward
Who am I to tell
What will they say
I live here in hell
Wishing I'd die everyday
They don't give you warnings
Tell the truths of life
Pain from night til morning
I really just wanna die
You sit & you cry
You look up above
Tears fall fromyour eyes
Ask God what have I done
They've always hurt you
Yet they're still free
You don't know what to do
Still scared and can't speak
They kept you very quiet
For far too many years
Stay up all thru the night
Fighting the demons so near
Even still, there's no help
You're truly all alone
Some of very high wealth
Some who had already known
You take a deep breath
Let out a slow sigh
Think your only peace is death
Telling yourself you have to die
