I smile and I laugh as I go through the day
Not one of my friends have a clue...

When I'm surrounded by the shadows,
as the sun is going down...

Sometimes, they are so cruel
They can bring you to your knees...

Inside the heart of broken shame
Of a lonely lullaby...

Bespeak this heart of dreams be told
Upon the night to beacon thee...

Cast not in shadows of the day
With pain that came along...

Moon glass picture silhouettes in the sky
As distance weighs deep in the soul...

A shutter of a heartbeat
Slowly thumping in the night...

For just a moment
As the dew crystallized upon the meadow...

The darkness
now engulfs me...

Tears slip from dark eyes of sorrow
To rest upon a cheek so fair...

They say a friend will know your need
Will stand beside you when you grieve...
