Another tear slips down my cheek
and joins the countless others...
Taking a deep breath,
fighting back the tears...
When people look at me
they only see a smiling mask...
I'm looking for you everywhere,
don't know where you are...
Release the darkness inside
thats slowly been brewing and boiling...
Life speeds by so very fast,
full of ups and downs and lessons hard learned...
I close my eyes and try to rest,
being here without you again...
Silence is my only greeting
as I sit alone in the night...
The silence of the night surrounds me
after you send that goodnight text...
We butcher and kill in the name of god
saying it's his will...
Sitting here alone in the dark
listening to the howling winds...
Tossing and turning,
waiting for the oblivion of sleep...
