I want to be perfect
i want to be pretty...

One pill
to make you numb...

I know i promised
but i really don't know...

You say you understand
you know it all...

All she ever wanted
was to have you by her side...

I walk to halls smiling
pretending i am truly happy...

Whenever you need me I'll always be here
Whenever you want me I'll always be near...

If you ever looked at me
would you actually see...

I am a poet writing of my pain
i am a person living a life of shame...

My heart is broken
my life is gone...

That day we sat on the couch
you told me we needed to talk...

Look deep in my eyes
see the pain within me...
