Screams For Help
Can't anyone see me?
See this fake smile on my face?
See these tears that I hold back?
Can't you see the pain that I'm in?
You all see this wall of protection that I have put up,
But can nobody see who I really am, behind this wall?
Nobody can tell that my laughter is just a loud scream for help.
Nobody can tell that I'm dying inside.
Nobody can tell that this smile is elastic.
I just want it all to end.
I want everyone to notice.
I want to be seen.
I want someone to save me from myself...
