Hollywood Crying




Different things for different people

Losing your twin

The one you cared about dearly

No girl giving you the time of day

Wanting to cry but nothing comes

Just facial expressions

Hollywood crying

Smeared memories crumbles tight

Begging, oh so begging for some light

Some Divine Intervention to sweep it away

To tie what was undone

To pick up what was dropped

Stop what was going on and on and on

Ripping off my masks

The happiness falls away

They all look horified

Surprised that there is something there

Painful extremities

Of blue-eyed demons

Laugh lines of forced smiles

Creased pages in a book

They laugh and they laugh at me

But not really at me, with me

But...

It's all lost

I'm a failure, there's nothing left inside
