i say in vain -------------------------------------------
I kept my heart hidden
but played the game so well
spit so many lies
that I myself even got lost
I drowned my sorrows
and wouldn't look to tomorrow
kept myself in the darkened hell
pushed people out
pushed people around
couldn't see
that I was hurting everyone
that I was hurting me
I begged and pleaded
to find an answer
or a drug
I couldn't have one without the other
but like every great love story
theirs an end to the tragedy
I fell in love you see
lost my self in sadness
lost him to another madness
couldn't explain it
so I didn't try
just cried while parts of me died
but its ok
I say in vain
as I try to tell you
all about the things I prayed for
even though I knew they weren't meant for me.
Submission Name: i say in vain
