you wear your eyes so bright
your broken smile so wide
there's a chip on your shoulder that you can't hide
and the world will know
that you're just a broken soul
cover up mon chéri
hidden behind the thin screen
so your shadows dance for me
like smoke from the fire
and as the flames get higher
you burn
and so you scream
silently
