Shades of darkness

Shades of darkness 

A little girl with a big smile 
smiling inside but broken outside 
Betrayal strikes when no one is there 
And here I am, in a dark room 
Where doors are locked and laughter's 
have faded in a blink of an eye 
My heart is heavy with stones 
Life reflexes at last minutes
Whispers of the past hount my present 
Was I ever capable at the first time ?
On this world I see myself as a looser 
But they see something else, because 
they will never know what I'm going through. I say Roll of thunder hear my cry
