Fade away

She smiles

Laughs away the pain

For a while

She wants to run away

Lock herself in her room

She wants to fade aay

She tries to fade away

She can't now, but may son

She cries

No one hears

Pain held inside

For 13 years

You don't know

Your words cut like knives

She won't let you know

She can't let you know

You laugh at her eight

You laugh at her smile

Her eyes, her hair, her height

Her laugh, no one's heard in a while

She smiles

Laughs away the pain

For a while

She wants to run away

For a while

She starts to fade away.
