All I Long For

sometimes i put on these masks

just to see if anyone asks

how im doing, if im alright

leaving myself in plain sight

wanting someone to be my everything

to hold my hand close and tight

to kiss me on my head goodnight

secrets that i keep all to myself

i put my heart up on the shelf

so everyone can throw darts

see which one breaks my heart

they all warned me to stay away

but there was something about her face

the way those green eyes drew me in

im still holding onto every last bit

i couldnt stay away from her

i couldnt hold myself back

but she knows how she is and

put that knife to my neck

now im a prisoner in my own hell

i cant escape from this place

chained to the walls of my lonely cell

and all i long for is her face...
