Soul Song
The smile on my face hides infinite pain,
Were I to let it slip tears would fall like pain.
The laughter in my voice hides notes of sorrow,
Were I to let it go sadness would be there ever after or so.
The brightness in my eyes hides the fire of my pain,
Were I to let it fade my heart would break, I'd go insane.
Why am I living in torture?
Why have I sought no cure?
Because I already know how to end my suffering life.
I know how to put an end to all my strife.
I am the one, the only one, who can end it all.
To make it end, my barrier, my guard must fall.
I locked up my heart and soul then threw away the key.
That's what's causing the pain, sorrow, and suffering in me.
They want to be let out to risk the world's trouble.
They tell me they can take away my pain, raise me from the rubble.
I decided maybe I should give in; let my heart and soul go free.
With them no longer caged I've discovered all that my life can be.
