Trapped

Is there truth behind this madness? I'm afraid I'll never know; How can I escape the sadness When I'm too afraid to go? "Hope" means nothing when you're lost; "Faith" can't force you to believe; "Love" is never worth the cost When your heart is on your sleeve I am all that you desire; I am living with a curse; Raise your hopes a little higher, And I'll only hurt you worse I have no love in this heart; No one ever understands; The hands that held me fell apart; I put no faith in your hands On the surface, weakness blooms, But the hate inside grows tough; No words echo in these rooms, But the silence is enough When you speak, I do not listen; When you listen, I tell lies So the tears won't start to glisten When you look into my eyes You won't be the one to save me; No one's saving me today; After everything you gave me, I still threw it all away Please don't ask me to think of you, Because we both know that I won't; Please don't ask me if I love you, Because we both know that I don't I know you'd stand by me forever, But I'll never let you try; You think that we're in this together; I've been caught up in the lie "Truth" means nothing when you're lied to; "Sorry" doesn't dull the blade; "Grief" means nothing when you're cried to By someone who's been betrayed Even stars fall without warning; "Pain" means nothing when you're numb; Scars mean nothing in the morning When the morning doesn't come Now my guilt for this has risen; I'm afraid you'll never know; How can I escape this prison When I'm too afraid to go? When I'm too afraid to leave you, When I'm too afraid to cry, When I say that I believe you, I would rather say goodbye
