She looked so far away
|
when she stood at our door
|
she sat frightened and frozen
|
and covered her eyes
|
|
But when you hide
|
no-one knows you deep inside
|
but when you cry
|
we can love you like a child
|
|
She started to tell me
|
what I tried to ignore
|
she acted her nightmare
|
and I suddenly saw
|
|
Its so easy to cover
|
its so easy to smile
|
but some people last winter
|
we're really broken inside
|
|
In the covering darkness
|
he turned from taking his life
|
one night in a thousand
|
we never knew why
|
|
His jokes are the fortress
|
for the hollow heart
|
it lets him hear the anger
|
but he won't feel the good
|
