"I’ve been weary, oh I am blue

and I try to smile and I swallow the thorns

oh, I’m acid, and I’m broken down

and I try to pretend I’m fine

on my own, on my own, on my own

I am tired and blue

and I can’t pretend, I can’t pretend it’s because of you

oh the arrows they blow, they’re striking me down

and as hard I try, I don’t make a sound, make a sound

make a sound, make a sound, make a sound"

Vanessa Bruno
