Always a worried expression have I carried on my face
Some how they seem to love it and wrap my throat tightly with lace
To choke back the no's so they can have thier way
I play along knowing who will win in this game
As they unthread my petrified heart and take it for thiers
I scream a shallow lullaby to hope my true lover would hear
But I have nothing to die for except my secrets and my sins
So I quickly shut my lips together with a thousand safety pins
I carried a hope that one day I would find the man of my dreams
But losing faith hastly that there was no one that belonged to me
Although I am young I feel that my life will be short
So I take it seriously to accomplish everything and more
Who will be the one to take my hand and hold onto it everyday?
Who will be the one to kiss me and leave me nothing to say?
I want to find that someone and for them to tell me they'll be with me past the end
I want to feel our hearts in a forever eternal mend
