No one knows
Anything but what they see
But they don't know
About the true life of me.
I try to look happy
And content with my life
But inside I'm upset
Thinking of all of the strife.
My heart breaks
Every time my parents fight
I pull the headphones over my ears
Ready to face another horrible night.
I'm struggling with depression
A drowing sadness in my heart
It hurts me to think
That my parents are growing apart.
What happened to our simple life
When we all got along?
Was it because of me?
Was there something I did wrong?
I can't take this much longer
I don't know how much I can stand
Arguements and hateful words
Dismiss any comfort at hand.
I cling to the few happy things in my life
Like the warmth of a friend's loving word
Or the welcoming arms of my one and only
And the people who listen when I want to be heard.
But no one knows
They believe only what they see
They wouldn't understand
The true life of me.
