for anyone who knows how it feels to cry

and so i cry just a little
begging to end it all once
just to bleed a little
and let it all come undone

and i pray just a little
to a god i'm not sure i believe
because all i have is a little
hole where i think a heart is supposed to be

and it hurts so much sometimes
to know that i seem to always fail
and that noone will ever see me cry
because i hide the real tears so well

and i have to wonder sometimes
why i can't just let it all go
and just move on with the life
that i cannot seem to outgrow

and so i let my tears flow
silently as the weight covers me
and i just want to die every day
that i cry myself to sleep softly
