Bet you didn't know

"Bet you didn't know" A picture is worth a thousand lies You think you know but you can't see Anything through my eyes Pain doesn't always show on the outside It's so easy to hide behind these walls My tears don't show at all (Chorus) This is my life, bet you didn't know About the bruises on my soul Bet you didn't know, how long It's been since I felt whole My closest enemy is blood to me And I can't break the ties No one will see beyond the lies Just looking for the will to survive When no one knows they took my Reason to be alive (Chorus) This is my life, bet you didn't know About the bruises on my soul Bet you didn't know, how long It's been since I felt whole Bet you didn't know Cause it never showed You will never know, so don't say you do What you see isn't always true Bet you didn't know Bet you didn't knowI just wrote this one about an hour ago, so bare with me. It's still a rough draft... Written January 12th, 2002 © on Jan 11 2002 05:03 PM PST, Sharon   20 • 0 • 10
