Dear stranger
Only those four walls Have seen your little cries And that corner was the only one Who dried your teary eyes Who stole your life away? And who stole your dreams? For the room is filled with echoes Of your hurtful screams Where did you go? Did you disappear? For your thoughts are wandering freely But none of them is clear The smoke is too thick For me to find you in the mirror To wipe your tears Of drugs and liquor Only the mirror knows Of the pain in your eyes And the room was the only one Who heard your little cries But will you ever be found And will you be saved Before all of this ends Before it's too late?
