Shattered Heart

Way Out

How long do I have to stay like this?

How long is it going to be the same?

How long am I supposed to stay caged like now?

Isn't what everyone seeking, 'fame'?

How long are they going to say this?

My voice is subdued whenever I try to shout,

I'm literally choking and my head hurts,

Please, please, find me a way out.

How long is this pain going to stay?

How long should I hold it in?

How long should I shut my mind and mouth?

How long should I put on a disinterested grin?

How long is the storm going to last?

How long will it take me to see clear skies?

How long should I keep forgetting the past?

How long should I continue faking smiles and telling lies?

How long are they going to say this?

My voice is subdued whenever I try to shout,

I'm literally choking and my head hurts,

Please, please, find me a way out.
