Silent Sadness

Erin Rivera

Too tired to cry
Good intentions gone bad
Where once there was happy
Now there is sad Never been enough

Never gonna be
Guess they should have hoped For more than little ol me
Washed out and faded I never knew loneliness like this
Just wave goodbye and blow a kiss
Every day is just a memory
That will be forgotten in the wind
Little pieces of my broken heart are lost
And will never be found again
What I once thought I was Is gone forever today
What I once thought was forever Is not here to stay
Tomorrow is a lie
And yesterday has long gone by I'm just left here alone
By myself to cry
