She's breaking
Splitting
Cracking
Falling apart
And what can I do with my sentences
That are cried onto the keys?
I try so hard to get the right words to form
Yet whenever I do, nothing comes out right
Just jumbled words and endless lies
She's consumed by a darkness I want to fight
And I do everyday
But my efforts don't help
Her smile isn't what it used to be
I can see her searching for her place
Every time I look her in the face
She wants to matter and be genuine she says
Now I'm realizing how much she faked
