Laying in the dark

tucked under the sheets

tears flowing down my face

I can barely breathe

 

I'm waiting out the pain

And when it's almost gone

I pull it back into myself

To save for the next time

 

No one must see me cry

I don't want their sympathy

The pain is mine, not yours

let me hold it inside of me

 

pain is a comfort

when no one else gives

I wrap it around myself

just to live

 

when you were gone

I started to break

I let someone else see

my biggest mistake

 

No one must see me cry

I don't want their sympathy

The pain is mine, not yours

let me hold it inside of me
