Heart On My Sleeve & Hell On My Heart

 

 

 

Scream

I scream at the top of my lungs,
I come undone.
I come crashing down,
when no ones around.
Tears run down my face,
as I hide behind my pillowcase.
I can't take it any longer,
my heart is broken beyond repair.
There is so much damage,
heartache and despair.
When there's just no words to say,
I scream.
I come crashing down to the ground,
and I scream.
I've always been the one smiling and laughing,
making sure everyones ok.
And I push those tears back inside,
like an actress on stage.
I am tired of hiding behind this happy facade,
time to let it all come out cause I can't hold it in no more.
So I scream,
at the top of my lungs,
coming undone, tears run down my face as I watch
myself fade away.
I've been trying to fill this void for far too long,
my happiness, my hopes and dreams are long gone.
It's been years since my face has seen a smile of honesty,
a smile that meant nothing other than I'm truly happy.
And it's time for this actress to retire,
because I can't hold it in any longer.
So I scream,
at the top of my lungs,
and I come undone.
