Sometimes...

Sometimes I feel so alone,
like no one in the world cares.
Sometimes I'm so sick of me,
and I fall into my fears.

Sometimes I cry so hard
that it hurts to even stop.
And sometimes I want the pain
that I know comes with the cut.

When people look at my face
they see a bright-eyed smile.
But what they don't see inside
is the crying broken child.

And at night I see myself,
and how happy I could be.
How safe I would feel, how loved,
if only you could see me.

But maybe I'm not letting you,
maybe I'm to blame.
When I think this thought
I hang my head in shame.

Because I know it's true
and I know I'm putting up a wall.
Because the truth I'm hiding
is I dont want to you to see at all.

And then you smile at me.
My heart melts at the sight.
You love me, you say it purely,
and I love you holding me tight.

So please I'm begging you
don't let me fade away.
Don't let me slip into myself,
because with you I want to stay.

Sometimes I feel so alone,
like no one in the world cares.
Sometimes I'm so sick of me,
and I fall into my fears.

But then you say you love me,
and I'm not alone any more.
