Can you see the look on his face?

Telling all his lies

Can you see the hate, fears and tears?

Hidden behind his eyes

So many things locked up inside

The way he acts like everything is fine

Desperately wanting someone to realize something’s not right

Hidden behind his wall

To protect him when he falls

Not sure of anything anymore

Lost and drowning forever more

Sea of loneliness & despair

He’s all alone with no one to care

He dies in the place he never wanted to call his home
