there is a world beyond
beyond your troubles, beyond the hurt
it takes effort, I know it does
to go looking where no one has
to have everything and yet nothing
shining eyes, smiling faces
turn into nightmares
tears of laughter turn to dust
all that's left is pieces
pieces of a heart that shattered silently
and had to heal in secret
withered remnants of a sigh
that still screams your name
