Underneath

In a crowded room I sit....

not giving a damn; not a care in the world.

Beautiful lies I consistantly spit...

and you fall in love with this girl.



You fall in love with guarded eyes...

Your favorite sound is a strangers laugh...

Meaningless conversations have you hypnotized...

And you follow me down a destructive path.



I am surrounded by four walls that I despise...

My reflection is the face of a liar.

I tell myself I hate their heartbeat, make myself ignore their cries...

My love has been soot and ashes, whenever they deserved fire.



Underneath the carelessness and betrayal...

An angel gently weeps...

Wounded and broken, afraid to fail....

Terrified of the secrets she keeps.



Underneath the revenge and the hate...

she sings the most beautiful song.

I thought I could destroy anyone, and defeat fate...

But that angel knows I'm wrong.



In a crowded room I sit...

more than a diamond, more than a pearl.

The walls crash down; I'm done; I quit.

...and you fall in love with this girl.
