Lingering On
Is it impossible to see
As you're tearing me apart
Just how much that you've hurt me
And my fragile little heart
My happiness is now a lie
And I fear the tears won't fall
Because it's just so hard to try
To stay and stand forever tall
I'm able to endure the pain in silence
But still it's cause for constant worry
That someday acts of mindless violence
Will result from my secret fury
