Here it comes again to taunt me
That feeling that locks me in a dungeon
My beating heart feels so numb and empty
A million thoughts in my mind that I could barely control
Can you hear them? Maybe you can't becasue I appeared peaceful and calm.
Yes, maybe you don't believe because I'm the jovial person that makes you laugh
I tell you calming words when you come to me with your worries while I kept mine

"I can feel the hole in my heart, drilling deep with no ending point"

A broken heavy heart that yearns for love
Cracked a million times yet willing to try
This point I am, the point where I'm within the crowd and still feel lonely
Love and family around yet a piece of me can't connect
This place I call EMPTINESS!
