No One Cares

If I were lost in a room of mirrors
would I soon have to face my fears?
But the only fear I'd ever see
is the lonely reflection of me.
Soon comes out all my anger and pride.
They pick me up and take me for a ride.
They take me to a hole that seems to have no end.
Then they drop me to see my body bend.
Would I be able to catch myself on a jagged rock
or will I stay frozen in a permenant lock.
Would my superman come to save me
or he look down and just flee.
It breaks my heart to see no one cares
while my body becomes full of tares.
I finally hit the bottom.
With other bodies old and rotten.
The bony hands grab my arms and try to pull me down.
And that's when I begin to drown.
I kick and twist to release myself.
I pray this is a dream and I'll still have my health.
But they seem to pull me down anyway.
Now there is nothing left for me to say.

Tears From My Eyes


Here I am again,
As I sit through the cold breeze of the night
Waiting for someone to come,
Waiting for someone to ease this pain in my heart
But alas, no one has yet arrived
No one has come to wipe these tears from my eyes

Sometimes I question,
If I have brought this curse upon myself
Or has fate led me to be destined like this?
Still I wait, for someone to take this pain off my chest
But alas, no one has yet arrived
No one has come to wipe these tears from my eyes

Because of this, I suffer with great regret
I did not confess to my beloved how I really feel
For I am not a woman with many convictions
Hence, I am alone and disconsolate
For I have passed a moment
That I would never have a chance to return to

So now I sit here yet again
Sitting through the cold breeze of the night
For I have passed a moment
Which I would regret till the end of time
For that, I am now alone
My beloved would never wipe these from my eyes
