You seem so comfortable behind your walls but you know your pain is bleeding through.
So you hide behind that forced smile, it's all you've learned to do.
The shattered pieces you've picked up, but you never put them back together,
They think you lied, ruined his life. the truth you'll regret forever.
So take the blame and hide your shame, they will see one day.
Your innocent but giving in, just try to act the same.
The empty pill bottle in your hand is all that blocks the hurt.
It takes away the memory of the night his hand went up your skirt.
So when your looking in the mirror and your staring at that face,
You realize the person looking back is one you've come to hate.
And you cry and you cry. you don't know what to do.
When you told your biggest secret you never thought it through.
You assumed they's believe you, take your side,
But they called you a fake and told everyone you lied.
Now your sneaking out your window wanderin' where to go
you can't stay here and no where feels like home.
You just want you life back and him to go to Hell.
Your taking the blame when he should be in jail.
But cover up your scars and and your half hidden pain.
Tell them them that your fine when your really not ok.
But remember,
that the day will come when it's finally your time
and everyone will see that he's the one that lied.
But for now.
Just take the blame, hide your shame, hope they will see one day.
You were innocent but you gave in.
Now you'll never be the same.

'So take the blame and hide your shame, they will see one day.
Your innocent but giving in, just try to act the same.

hmmm...
i loved the writing, and i have never heard the song, but just a little misspelling on some words 'you' to 'your',... other than that, it is a beautiful poem, and you write very beautifully.
