Such fragile things we are inside.
Build our walls to hide our pain.
We're just like window's.
Glass on the inside and a windowpane to hold our frame.

Holding ourselves when we don't
want the world to see.
That our frozen tears are nothing more
Then we want for our self to be.

A moment of pretending will save another to worry.
Just so we can hide this pain; and no one else to hurt.
Our pain is a smoldering fire.
Hidden in ashes but strong enough to be burnt.

Fragile is ourselves.
Don't deny the truth we hide.
A fake smile
will tape up our broken pride.

But in our time of need we'll open up.
Because the pain is too much to bear.
A shoulder to cry on.
A relief and no more will we shed another tear.
