No one sees the hurt behind his eyes
No one sees the scars beneath her sleeves
No one sees the people they truly are
They just see the people they long to be
No one knows that he is abused
No one knows she struggles to sleep
They just see the rebel with nothing to say
And the head cheerleader who’s ready to please
No one will know they meet in secret
No one need know they can’t see a future
Because they both have something they are hiding
And it’s that they have no plans to see tomorrow
He wrote the letter which they both signed
She packed the bags for the police to find
They both slipped out their windows that night
Neither of them planning to say goodbye
The police found their bodies in the woods the next day
The empty bottles surrounding their memories
The letter was between them clasped in their hands
A last farewell to the ones they left behind
Two months later no one remembered
Who they were and what they did
Their secrets and story now six feet under
Buried with them forever and ever
