a derelict house
that's what i am
where the happiest memories have already played their part and all that is left is misery
i am nothing more than a broken staircase, weak timber and stained walls
the home that was once filled with love now whispered the very secrets that destroyed it
the broken mirror, smashed to pieces on the floor is the only one who can see truth
and i'll tell you why
if you look from outside you'll see a pretty little house with a white picket fence
not a chip in the paint or weed on the lawn
you'll see the dream that everybody wants to see
but that's not me
