A Fading Child

Copyright Mariah/The Wind

I cry out for help-
yet no one hears.
I cry out in tears-
but no one cares.
Inside the child keeps on fading,
creating a new image-
rising above the shadows and rising into the light.
A me that is weak, sensitive - and crazy.
Nobody sees it-
yet nobody would care,
life is just never any fair.
The knife inside my heart turns once again.
The pain begins. my new life then ends.
The butterfly loses it's wings,
then falls.
But the star stays up strong,
even though the petals all fall.
The child inside and memories,
will never die-they'll only kill me:
on the inside.

Stop

river of tears
river of fears
they wash away my pain
they wash away my pain
i wish upon a star
but i know i won't get far
i miss you, baby
in every way
in every way
i'm crying here
i'm dying here
is this the way it's supposed to end
is this the way it's supposed to end
blood on the wall
blood on my bed
all the pain
it's gone
it's gone
