I lie in bed with tears in my eyes
Scared of what tomorrow might bring
Uncontrollable tears and screaming
And a guarantee of more pain
As I toss and turn trying to sleep
Noise seeps in underneath the door
Things breaking, smashing against the wall
Then a clatter as someone falls to the floor
A door slams and all the lights flicker off
Nothing dares to break the silence all around
All I hear is myself, sobbing into my pillow
Feeling like a miserable toy in a lost and found
I wince in pain as I press against the bruises on my arm
Why couldn't they somehow disappear?
Now I have to find some excuse for tomorrow
And concentrate on covering up my fear
Running away from it all won't help
Everything will just come back and haunt me
The demons in my mind will never escape
I wish there were some way for me to be free
It's frustrating, I'm so sick of crying
I need to stop the tears from falling
Get my life back on track
But doesn't anyone see how much I'm hurting?
All I can do right now is wait
Wait for tomorrow to come and start
But as I pick up the pieces of what's left in my life
My wounds will heal but might leave scars
