Tears on the Pillow (vol 2)

I lock the door and keep it all inside

The secrets of the dark where we would hide

They left me here with nobody to tell

I learned to wear a smile and wear it well (hmmm)

They think I'm happy when they see my face

But they don't see this quiet,

hollow space

My pillow knows the tears I cry at night

I'm reaching out but there's no

hand in sight

The only one who knew the pain is gone

I'm all alone and trying to

hold on

You finally found me,

saw behind the mask

You answered questions

I could never ask

But now you've vanished

like the morning light

And left me fighting with a quiet night

How much longer can I stand?

Sinking slow in shifting sand

I don't know how to

survive this storm

(no, I don't know)

My pillow knows the tears I cry at night

I'm reaching out but there's no

hand in sight

The only one who knew the pain is gone

I'm all alone and trying to

hold on

I don't know how long I can last (hushhh)
