Behind Black Eyes

By xPainfulTears

No one knows what it's like to be the bad girl...
to be the sad girl...
Behind black eyes.

No one knows what it's like to be hated...
to have faded...
but my dreams,
they aren't as empty as my concscience seems to be.

I have hours, 
only lonely.
My love is vengance,
that's never free.

No one knows what it's like to be different.
To be without compassion.
To be without love,
and no conscience.

No one knows what it's like...
to be the mad girl...
to be the sad girl...
Behind black eyes.

    Yes, thank you. I loved the song and the words opened something for me. I didn't want it to be exactly the same so I put my own personal dark touch to it. If you haven't seen any other pieces of my writing, and you liked this one, you should check them out.
