Author's note: I am mad at the world and I need to take it out on someone. I wrote this song for my character Rosie Oakes, and I'm just gonna post it riiiight here.
Tear down the lies.
Look into my eyes.
I'll show my pain,
But will it be in vain?
It's late at night.
The stars shining bright.
Vodka in my hand.
Too drunk to stand.
I am the victim who doesn't notice—
Just turn to the tormentor and blow a kiss.
I am the depression that is never there.
I have scars that I want to share.
I am the undying ball of eternal light—
But secretly, I'll never glow very bright.
I seem happy, but I'm done trying.
When no one's here, I'm always crying.
Tear down the lies.
Look into my eyes.
I'll show my pain,
But will it be in vain?
It's late at night.
The stars shining bright.
Vodka in my hand.
Too drunk to stand.
I'm the victim who pretends I don't notice.
In hopes they'll stop, I turn and blow a kiss.
I am the depression I don't want here.
I have scars I'll soon share.
I wanna be a ball of eternal light—
It really sucks I'll never glow very bright.
When I smile, I don't want to be trying.
When no one's here, I don't want to be crying.
Tear down the lies.
Look into my eyes.
I'll show my pain,
But will it be in vain?
It's late at night.
The stars shining bright.
Vodka in my hand.
Too drunk to stand.
Help tear down the lies.
Stare into my eyes.
Let me show my pain.
Don't let it be in vain.
When it's late at night,
And the stars are shining bright,
Please take my hand
And help me stand.
I'll tear down the lies.
Make you look into my eyes.
Make you see my pain.
Just please...don't let it be in vain...
