When I close my eyes I hear the scream Raging deep inside! A crooked grin and friendly smile, The perfect way to hide. But there’s a barrel pressed against my skull, Right between my eyes- Held by the man deep inside Who screams the unheard cries. I’ll deal with the pain by myself, On the outside I’ll be fine. You’ll never hear the tortured screams Or know that I’m walking the line. It’s a crisis of thoughts, and words, and things I never could define, A silent agony deep within- But on the outside I’ll be fine. Inside I know I’m lying But on the outside I’ll be fine. The inside's where I’m dying.
