Dying Inside

My pillow's drenched with my tears as I lay here sobbing
I've been hurt so badly, yet no one knows my secret pain.
My heart wants to heal itself, wants to heal this feeling inside of me
I hate myself for all the hurt in my friends eyes
For the water trickling down their cheeks
I've tried and tried to be perfect, but no matter what I do
I only end up making a fool of other people, or of myself
And now I am still laying here, ashamed of me, of who I am
And even though there a thousand words in my mind
There are only two words to describe the way I feel
I'm DYING INSIDE. . . . . . . .
