There's a tale of sadness Written in the snot stains on your pillow (What do you know?) There's a world of madness That you hide from, outside of your window (How do you know?) Come child, can't you see the sun is shining? Stand proud, don't let them frighten you away Run wild, even when the moon is hiding Scream loud, 'cause they can't hear you anyway Morning but you haven't woken, Playtime but your toys are broken Oh no, where will you go? Can't finish what you haven't started, Date night for the broken hearted You know, but it won't show Bottle with a fancy label Meal for one cold on the table Won't eat and you can't sleep Invite to the party opened Lines rehearsed but never spoken Can't breathe so you don't leave. Hidden truth, shrouded with lies, confused Buried by hate, abuse Bilious, self consumed Awake but you're sound asleep Open your eyes see me Open your ears and hear Open your heart don't fear consanguinity There's a tale of sadness Painted by the tear stains on your photo Please don't let go Come child can't you see the sun is shining Run wild Maybe we'll find a better day
