Understand

by The Spirit of Ash   Mar 25, 2006


I wish you would have listened
To all those words people said
Instead you confront me
I swear you must be brain dead

No, I won't get mad at you
I will tell you what is wrong
So listen carefully to me
And I'll say what's going on

Do you ever spend nights crying?
It may sound crazy, but I do
What's wrong? You seem confused
Well then, let me show you

You ask why I'm not smiling?
How can I? And what for?
You only smile when your happy
But I'm never happy anymore

Why am I sitting alone?
It's how it's been for awhile
It doesn't seem strange to me
Isolation is my life style

Look down at my hands
See how they're shaking?
It's because I'm always scared
No, I am not faking

See these salted raindrops?
They are from all of my cries
They come when I'm really hurt
And when a part of me dies

Now, place your hand here
That's right, on my heart
Feel it's bleeding pain?
That's what's tearing me apart

So, now do you understand?
Why I am so stressed?
I'm really hurting in and out
It's what happens...when you're depressed
