</>Hello did my tears and cries
Made you laugh?
It’s been a long, long time
I hope that you still know me
I’ve been hiding quite awhile
I know that you know all things
Still, I think I should explain
The reason I’ve been hiding
Is because of all the pain
I know that I don’t look so great
For meeting up with you
But I hope you understand
I’ve been alone since I was five
You probably see the dirt marks
And smudges on my face
But it seems no matter how I try
Some things can’t be erased
They say that eyes are windows
That peer into the soul.
I’m afraid that if you look there
You’ll find it dark and cold
I’m not sure why it is, god
But you won’t see any tears
I guess they’ve just been locked up
Inside me all these years
I know that limp and lifeless
Is my unruly hair
I guess that’s just what happens
When no one really cares
And if you ask a question
I won’t have much to say
I’ve found that no one really wants
To hear me anyway
And if you care to listen
Sit quiet and you’ll hear
How hard my heart is pounding
That’s because of all the fear
You’ll notice that I wrap my arms
Around me all the time
I do that for protection
Of the things that should be mine
See, not so very long ago
Without an ounce of care
Someone took away from me
Things I never meant to share
And if you find I tremble
When you come close to me
It’s because of all the dreadful things
That someone did to me
God I’m so sorry
If these things have saddened you
But when I cried out to you
You never told me what to do
I know that in my mother’s womb
You created me
And I can’t help but wonder
Is this what I was meant be
They say that you are everywhere
With each and every one,
But it seems that on those dark times
You left me all alone
They tell me that you love me
and I suppose it’s true
God, show me the way
With out you god i don't know what to do.
