cries and lies

panic misguided

Maybe it's why i cry
Maybe even why i lie
To hide it all inside
Making me have an anxious mind
I never thought it would go past emotional pain, making everything numb
As i sit here and think what it is i have done wrong
I thought it would go away but it just keeps coming back
like a nightmare while i sleep leaving permanent fear in it's track
