I tried to smile for them...
they still brought me another pill...
wouldn't take the needles away
or the pillows off the walls
They told me I was crazy
I learned that white jackets
aren't easy to chew through...
a closed casket rolls away
a life i loved cherished and depended on
there's an emptiness
and still i cry
but let me smile for you please
try to force me to feel
you'll never get the light back in
my eyes
a broken soul trapped inside
a shattered chalice
there's nothing left to save
