His eyes are dark, As dark as night. Buried deep within Is the pain he tries to hide. His laugh is so sad, Sad like a cry. 'Cause he can't forget The suffering and lies. In the present he awaits his future, To make him happy at last. I see his eyes growing darker, He can't escape his past. There is distance in his eyes, And anger in his face. I can see his hopelessness. The sorrow I can taste. He's terrified of living, Yet, afraid to let go. So he lives with this pain. This pain no one knows.
