Close my eyes to vanish the scars.
  Cry my tears to wash out the pain.
  Hold my breath for one more chance.
  Swallow my meds to erase the memories.
  Sleep all day to forget you were even there.
  Wake at night to live my life.
  smile my way through the days.
  Put on my mask to hide the fear.
  Tell you lies to satisfy you're hunger.
  See the truth every time I open my eyes.
