Laughing in the shadows of her own demise.
Swallowing up the dirt that she said in her lies.
Wanting to be the one behind the truth.
But kicking down all that she has to lose.
Waking up in the middle of a nightmare.
Those deadly eyes, how they stared.
Now she will never want to sleep,
Bring down those burdens that you keep.
She thought she found you in her dreams.
But something heavy, made her scream.
Now she must swallow up her pride,
Now she must wipe up the tears that she cried.
Nothing can get in her way of finding happiness.
Except what she saw, and what she confessed.
