I'm surrounded by people who say they care,

But when I really need them, they suddenly aren't there.


I feel so empty sitting in a dark room all alone.

I can't even image ever calling this place I see a home.


People say they understand, but I know that's a lie,

For if they did, they would know what it's like to emotionally die.


So I deal with this pain every day,

Hoping in the near future everything will turn out okay.


Don't be fooled by the mask I create 

For it is all a lie 

Underneath my calm sophisticated facade 

There is nothing but lies and sadness


I need you to help me

I need you to reach out

Wipe the blind stare of the living dead away from my face

So that my heart can grow small but feeble wings

I need you to breathe life into me 


After you find what a wreck I am 

will you still care?
