Hurting Deep Inside

You think you know me.
But I sadly disagree.
The only one who truly knows me,
Is me.

Look at the little boy over there.
You think that you know him.
Do you know him enough to care?
That little boy over there,
Hides his tears,
And he cant face his fears.

He runs into things.
He gets cuts and bruises everyday,
But the truth is he doesn't run into things,
Like he says he does,
The truth is,
That poor little boy,
Runs when his dad comes.

You think that you know,
That girl over there?
Do you know her enough to care?
That girl over there has a broken heart.
She cant stand to live here,
Much longer, she is falling apart.

She sits in her room crying,
Every night, before bed.
She wishes that she was dead.
That boy killed her,
When he spoke those words.
"Its over"
She just Fakes a smile,
And blinks away the tears.

She blames herself
For what happened.
One of these days soon she'll
End everything.

So when you look at a
Boy or a girl, and
They look like everything is Okay.
They are just hiding their feelings.
And going through things the hard way.

You think you know me?
Do you?
Take a better look closely
At the world and you might find,
That things don't look,
Like what they really are behind,
The tears, the suffering.
The pain that is hurting deep side.
