When life is tough
And love is down
And all I have
Is a tearful frown.
Keep on my mask
Don\'t let them see
All the pain I feel
That just won\'t flee.
Throw down the blade
Clean up the blood
Wipe up the tears
And stop the flood.
Don\'t be selfish
Don\'t \" oh woe is me \"
No one cares
So don\'t let them see.
Who am I kidding?
What keeps me here?
When I\'m ball and chained
By depression and fear.
It runs my life
I\'m at the end of my tether
Life\'s falling apart
And I can\'t hold it together.
The anger inside me
It boils away
Is my sadness and fear
Here to stay?
Let me go in peace
Let the pain wash away
I want to lay my head down
And not see another day.
I want to say goodbye
Be a burden no more
To feel no fear, no pain
To feel no sorrow for sure.
