Each smile you fake is a new brick in the wall you persist in building every fucking day
And sometimes it's getting so hard to see you behind
You still act like the perfect daughter bringing home straight A's to make daddy proud
But I don't expect you to be strong. I don't expect you to be strong
And it tears me apart cause I feel your sorrow
But I'm stuck. Can't find the words
And it tears me apart cause I feel your sorrow
But I'm stuck. Can't find the words
I can't find the words to make you feel better
O darling would you make me hear the things you try so hard to hide in your laughters? In our laughters...
I would burn those pages if I could and chase the demons scaring you, but I feel so helpless and weak
You're so good at pretending nothing's wrong, nothing's real
Why don't you let it go? Why don't you let me in?
O darling would you let me in?
O darling please let me in
And it tears me apart cause I feel your sorrow
But I'm stuck. Can't find the words
And it tears me apart cause I feel your sorrow
But I'm stuck. Can't find the words
I can't spit those fucking words to take your pain away
They're stuck down my throat
The path that leads to your heart is scattered with shards of glass
But I'll keep, I'll keep crawling even if my hands and knees scream for a break
I'll go on 'til you get tired of playing hide and seek with me
I'll be around, waiting, darling... Just call me whenever you need
I'll never let you down cause my love for you is real
This love will last forever cause you mean so much, so much to me

Why are you gone?
It takes me slowly
Boredom fills my life
Like the water filled your lungs
I wander in a gallery full of unknown portraits
Since the day you left me, since the day you went away
And I cannot even recognize my own face
Am I dreaming? Is my life a fake?
O darling I long for the day
When you and I will be as one again
I long for that fucking day
When you will answer all the questions that are left
Blood's still running through my veins
And my heart keeps beating in my chest
But I don't feel alive, no... I don't feel the same
Cause something's frozen in my brain
I've lost the key of the closet of my mind
So the memories of you are safe inside
O darling I long for the day
When you and I will be as one again
I long for that fucking day
When you will answer all the questions that are left
Slowly boredom fills my life
Like the water filled your lungs
I drown in my thoughts
Since the day you ran away
So take my hand
Bring me back to the surface
Oh take my hand
Show me the other side
