I wake up every morning
with pain in my heart
no one knows when they see me,
i just wiped away more tears
nobody knows what i'm holding back
i hide the emotion with a smile on my face
i go through the days, and it's hard to function
with the pain behind this mask
i bear the burden of a broken heart
and sometimes i wonder if it gets better than this.
i have dreams
i will one day have wings
i have dreams every night i'll wake up with angels
and fly away from here
through the storm i fight to stand up tall
but when i get home i curl up in a ball
close my eyes and pray i can fall asleep
i don't sleep much these days
i just wish the pain in my heart would go away.
to fall asleep and be okay.
