This pain rushing through me

                          
Demands an audience

                          
Causes shockwaves of torment to bubble up

                          
And rush through me in waves

                          
I'm drowning in myself

                          
I refuse to show my hurt

                          
I refuse to drag everyone around me down

                          
Down into a dark, endless cavern, just like the one I call home

                          
So for now

                          
The pain stays hidden

                          
Behind a mask

                          
And the sorrow

                          
Is only static

                          
It is the white noise in my life
