Corey Fauchon (2/10/1991 / Newcastle, NSW, Australia)
Alone
You're emotions are drowning
You think no-one can save you
Everyday you start by frowning
According to you, no-one has a clue
You try to put on a happy face
Everyone know's its a disguise
Every night you escape to you're own space
The world keeps feeding you lies
You try to take your own life
You wander the empty house
All you see is the new knife
Then you see an injured mouse
You nurse it back to health
The mouse helps you to change
You start to love youreself
Ask for nothing in exchange
