I'm the cause of your pain, I know this is true.
But how can I fix it, what canI do?
Every tear that you cry, another smack in the face.
Because of the mistakes that I can't erase.
If only I'd seen before all this pain.
Before you were left standing, alone in the rain.
Did you really have to go through this all?
Or were you hurt because of my fall?
It's too late to fix it, I've done my part.
To rip and tear and fuck up your heart.
But maybe I can make it a little bit better.
Brighten your day witha call or a letter.
This pain in your heart...

If only you were here to take this blade from my hand!
if only you were here,
i know you'd understand.
come save me, my superman!
come hold me close,
make me happy as only you can.
bring the smile to my face,
and out of the dark.
wash away the bright crimson lace.
hold me my dear,
in your arms so tight.
take away all my fear,
on this sad lonely night.

How can life be so unfair?
Keeping me over here and you over there.
I miss you so much my heart wants to stop beating.
Only the memory of our kiss keeps me breathing.
We've been cheeted and fooled by silly Love's games.
Promised so much, to have it taken away.

Alone again with no one here
just my blade and my blood near
the teardrops all sliently to the ground
just like the drops of sweet red blood
please stop this, i dont want to hurt anymore
show me that you care
hold my hand, stroke my hair
hold me in your arms so tight
please dont leave me alone tonight
dont leave me ever, dont let me go
dont leave me alone with no one here
just my blade and my blood near
with teardrops falling silently to the ground
just like the drops of sweet red blood

I hide behind this mask of mine
its a mask of joy, a mask of love
a mask of "everything is fine"
you all think that I'm so perfect
so innocent and sweet
that's just the mask, the real me you cant meet
I hide my shame, my hate, my tears
behind this mask of mine
a mask of "i have no fears"
i wish someone would see beyond this mask of mine
someone patient and kind
someone who understands all the pain it hides
this lovely mask of mine
what lies beneath the surface?
pieces of a broken child
a twisted mind that runs wild ...
