Smile Through The Pain
Just not having you in my arms is driving me insane
The twilight sun has tainted my inner vision
was there something inside you have been wishing
We hide behind the false hidden garb of compromise
Can't we see through those twisted lies
Shadows break upon the morning
Mental illness effects us all
Blackened caverns of experience inside
The long duration of the silence within
we hold are breath then count to the number ten
Were at the edge of are seats
have we gone so very deep
Through a variation of a dream evil scheme
A lone novice would disagree
What is my one solemn humble plea
smile through the pain
When the outside world acts totally insane
lest I refrain...
Sullen brevity
faces, traces, shadows & cobwebs
Like faces in the window with storms in the night
many heads prefer to live by sight
We can't escape the way we feel
perhaps a love embrace will seal the deal
Vortex
Long lines are being drawn in the street
grand illusion
we fought back the tears to numb the inner pain
