• Background

    Sometimes I stand in the foreground
    For all the wold to see.
    But with you, I'm part of the background
    A cold heart you can't see
    My smile has frozen on my face
    I'll never shed a tear
    I'm not so sure I still have a soul.
    I've been this way for a year.
    My voice has long since vanished.
    My heart torn into shreds,
    Still I stay in the background
    Too much of me now has bled.
    My heart has fallen to pieces,
    My eyes no longer hold life.
    You now are the only one who can save me
    From my existence of strife
    But I know you never will,
    For I'm just a part of the background
    The background of your happy world.
