HELP ME

THOSE SILENT TEARS

Shh...listen don't you hear

all my tears that fall like autumn leaves

I'm crying but they are silent tears

that no one cared to hear

Dark Angel gave me more fears

that lasted all these painful years.

I cry in the night all alone

hoping no one would come to my home

my bones felt broken

my heart shattered and my body truly battered

but to others, it didn't matter.

I'm screaming deep withing

crying so hard inside myself

but in my days I keep a smile on my face

so no one could see the pain I really in.

All the pain running through me

was something no one would ever understand

the cuts are so deep the wounds are always riping open

they will not heal, because my life is a living hell,

I cry for you to leave me alone

I cry for me, to be set free

because my life is a living nightmare,

I cry for the times I can't feel love

I cry because one time I did love

If you would only care to listen

you may hear my silent tears

fall right by your pillow.

This is the pain you gave

deep within the silent of the night

is where my tears fall

wishing I could tell you the truth about what I feel,

This love you gave me was never love

I don't love you and I will never love you

that is why I am walking out the door.

those silent tears and fears

will be stained on your pillow when you get up.
