Song lyrics describing a hard time i went through. I hope you like this piece of writing.


What happened to the boy in the picture by my window?
What happened to the boy  i used to know?
His laughs have passed and his smiles have gone,
The good times have vanished and the pain has come,
He has been overcome by insecurity.

Now the walls are closing in and time is counting down,
For him to make a change,
For him to make a change and be happy.

Life is flashing before my eyes,
'I am okay' is my least convincing lie,
I take all of my feelings and keep them bottled up inside,
Waiting for the moment when i am not afraid to hide,
And i hope that one day i will be strong enough to smile,
And i hope that one day is coming soon cause i've been waiting a while.

What happened to the boy who never used to care?
What happened to the boy who used to be right there?
He sits alone playing sad songs all day,
Waiting for the moment when his pain will go away,
Cause he can't find any reason to be alive.

Still the walls are closing in and time is counting down,
For him to make a change,
For him to make a change and be happy.

Life is flashing before my eyes,
'I am okay' is my least convincing lie,
I take all of my feelings and keep them bottled up inside,
Waiting for the moment when i am not afraid to hide,
And i hope that one day i will be strong enough to smile,
And i hope that one day is coming soon cause i've been waiting a while.

Nobody can see past my smile as i hold back each tear,
Nobody can realize how much of this life i fear,
The only see my smiles but they don't see my pain,
I walk this life alone; all over again and again,
I need to spread my wings and i need to fly,
Right around this galaxy and all the way up to the sky.

Life is flashing before my eyes,
'I am okay' is my least convincing lie,
I take all of my feelings and keep them bottled up inside,
Waiting for the moment when i am not afraid to hide,
And i hope that one day i will be strong enough to smile,
And i hope that one day is coming soon cause i've been waiting a while.
