ECHO
Light falls all around me, but in my world it's dark.
Whispered words become echoing screams in the silence of my heart.
I see the world not as it is, but how I wish it could be.
All the lies and rumors stop, and everyone loves me.
The mirror reflects someone I have never seen before.
I see what is there and I wish for something more.
Tell me lies and say I'm beautiful, maybe someday I'll believe.
Trying so hard to believe what you say, but in my heart I feel deceived.
Wishing for something I'll never have; in my world it does not exist.
Longing for something I've never known, therefore it can't be missed.
Writing words that mean so much but no one will ever read.
Light falls all around me, but in the darkness, I'm left alone to bleed.
Whispered words become echoing screams in the silence of my heart.
I see the world not as it is, but how I wish it could be.
All the lies and rumors stop, and everyone loves me.
The mirror reflects someone I have never seen before.
I see what is there and I wish for something more.
Tell me lies and say I'm beautiful, maybe someday I'll believe.
Trying so hard to believe what you say, but in my heart I feel deceived.
Wishing for something I'll never have; in my world it does not exist.
Longing for something I've never known, therefore it can't be missed.
Writing words that mean so much but no one will ever read.
Light falls all around me, but in the darkness, I'm left alone to bleed.
