All I do is cry
I lay awake at night and all I do is cry
i compress all the feelings inside
and I just lie on the outside
when I look in my eyes all I want is to die
when I'm with people I put on a brave face
but really I'm stuck in one place
Waiting for the walls to fall
waiting for my legs to move
waiting for everyone to approve
waiting for the light to shine a bit more bright
it Just seems I'm the bad guy
so all I do is cry
i May smile and laugh
but that's just a mask
I feel like a photograph
you take it to capture the moment
but there more feelings in the inside then outside
I just want to jump in the ocean and let it swallow me whole
it feels like I'm out of control
I just try and try and try
but all I do is cry
