Sadness takes over, day after day
And all that’s happy seems to fade away
All the laugher is an echo of pain
As we hide inside waiting the night.

Reasons escape,
The blue is here to stay.
We’re taking a chance
There’s no other way.

My heart is shredded,
Yet I find I cannot cry.
Afraid of the dark,
I’m broken inside.

Smiles are so easily given,
But they tell other lies.
But look into my eyes and you’ll see
All my heart’s desire.

I’m living my dream
Yet I’m empty inside.
If not for the sadness
that surrounds my heart.

I’m surrounded by friends,
Yet none worthwhile
And I can’t find in the books,
What I’ve left behind.
