Falling, Falling, Falling, becoming more insane
When will my smile come and take away the pain.

Standing at the door that has been locked for years
Knowing what's inside, the pains, fears, and flooding of tears.
Behind me are all the open doors I ran to
Looking for a way out, a way out of facing you.
But you see running got me nowhere but here
Here where I'll open this door and remember the fear.

Falling, Falling, Falling, becoming more insane
When will my smile come and take away the pain.

I've been hiding behind doors this whole time
I went to sports, jokes, others, and even to rhyme.
But now I face the door with iron clasps and locks
Oh, the pain that'll rush in when my mind is loaded with these shocks.
Where will these fears take me to when released?
Will I find treasure, hope, joy, and fill my life with peace?

Falling, Falling, Falling, lost in the rain
When will the sun come, and take away the pain?

I've been running through this life, hiding behind my face,
Wondering if I ever have to stop and quit this never-ending race.
I used to be able to hide behind this happiness
But now more things have piled on causing me stress.
I've met some new friends of which I try to confide in,
But how can I, when I feel like a burden, struggling everyday with sin.

Falling, Falling, Falling, lost in the rain
When will the sun come, and take away the pain?

Great work here. I hope this isn't in relation to your life right now. If it is, I hope things get better soon.

Nothing can deter a poet, for he is actuated by pure love. Who can predict his comings and goings? "Thoreau"
