Dry Tears in the Rain

Reading my life away
In the books i wish were real
Were there is always a happy ending
After all the twists and turns

Dreaming of what i wish
Could be a reality
As sand in the hourglass slips
Into the bottom

Writing to keep sain
In this world of so much suffering
Where everything doesn't happen for a reason
Except to tear you down

-------------------------

Crying on the inside
But never the out
Letting my books take me away
Into a world without doubt

Smiling fake smiles
But never ones that are real
Because the only time i do that
Is in my dream world when i sleep

Hiding behind a mask
At all times of the day
Only showing my true self
In the writing that keeps my from going insane
