Quietly, Quietly
Cry these tears at night
The only way to tell
I'm not all right
Secretly, secretly
Nobody must know
Keep making lame excuses
So the cuts will never show
Gracefully, gracefully
Laugh and joke along each day
If I let a smile slip
They'll realize I'm not okay
Desperately, desperately
Climb the walls of my caged mind
Looking for a way out
That I know I'll never find
Slowly, slowly
My heart breaks before your eyes
There's no true happiness in me
There's just despair cloaked in disguise
Carefully, carefully
Hide my fragile form
Living less and less
Pretending it's just the norm
Gently, gently
I stroke the marks upon my arms
Lying alone, blood trickles down
Another victim of self-harm.
