In the cool dark night,
I live in the shadows,
while the full moon shines.
In the morning light,
while you walk right by with me out of sight,
I slowly break inside,
but that you'll never know.
I walk around with my head held up high,
with a confident stride,
and my back arched staright like a beautiful ballet dancer.
I look so hopeful, you'd never suspect,
of all the darkness hidden in me.
I'll give advice,
I'll make you laugh,
I'll talk with you,
I'll help you through,
We may get close,
but still you'll never know,
of all the pain inside of me.
You'll always think of me as confident,
You'll always think of me as glad,
You'll always think of me as perfect,
but deep down inside of me,
under all the lies,
under the act,
are deep, painful, shadowed, dark, memories.
Memories of abuse,
memories of fear,
memories of pain,
memories of aloneness,
memoriese of hate.
The memories are embedded in me,
in the darkness inside of me.
If I could just be loved,
If I could just feel that I belonged,
If the dark memories could just be replaced,
replaced with love and want,
then maybe I coud have you,
just for one moment,
just one special moment,
forever embedded in time,
forever embedded in me.
