I hide to cry because I have nowhere to call my own,
and, "happily-ever-after, " is a land too far away.
Just after, "once-upon-a-time, "
on the other side of the rainbow.
I hide to cry because I know I will never leave this place.
Dreams don't really come true,
It's all just make believe.
One more lie, false hope, and broken promises.
No one who loves me.
No one who cares.
I hide to cry because my weaknesses bring my tears.
I have no one to hold me close,
or help to ease my fears.
I'm all alone with my torn and tattered heart that such a cold, cruel world writhed apart.
No one to shine a light when darkness is all around.
No one offering a helping hand.
No one there to give a damn.
No one would even flinch if I was buried six feet under or lying dead in a ditch.
I hide to cry because everyone turns a blind eye.
They all fail to see...
I hide to cry because the people of this world are what has broken me!
