"Painted Tears"
© Lasagna-chan a.k.a: Julianne Louise Powers

Painted tears
trickle down my face
for I've been tricked
by love's embrace

Painted tears
leave me be
let me live
in my misery

Painted tears
stain the land
changed my life
cause you held out your hand

Painted tears
I dare not erase
so I do not forget
love's scornful embrace

Painted tears
like fire in my eyes
like a knife in my back
like some big suprise

Painted tears
are everywhere
all the time
over there

Painted tears
like a fake smile
I think I'll wear
for just a while

Painted tears
I cannot see
but will live on
in memory

Painted tears
free my life
let me settle down
despite my strife

Painted tears
come to an end
and suddenly
you're "just a friend"
