shes fallen apart yes
but do we know why
hiding her secrets
beneath the sky
of velvet silk
in her mind
she thinks she insane
going through days
in tons of pain
maybe she'll let her secrets go
her secrets deep
involving blood
what in the hell
has she done
she wont tell
will we find out
maybe so
its a possibility
don't you know
we'll eventually take her down
she hides under the blanket
all day
we'll get her out
we'll treat her this way
it wont be so bad
it may have started
as childhood abuse
she couldn't hold it in
she never made a truce
she can make it now
so as she sits
beside her bed
all these thoughts
ran through her head
but do we know why
hiding her secrets
beneath the sky
of velvet silk
in her mind
she thinks she insane
going through days
in tons of pain
maybe she'll let her secrets go
her secrets deep
involving blood
what in the hell
has she done
she wont tell
will we find out
maybe so
its a possibility
don't you know
we'll eventually take her down
she hides under the blanket
all day
we'll get her out
we'll treat her this way
it wont be so bad
it may have started
as childhood abuse
she couldn't hold it in
she never made a truce
she can make it now
so as she sits
beside her bed
all these thoughts
ran through her head
