Why does it hurt so much to decide to be happy
Sheltered heart and shell-shocked mind makes it difficult
To unwind
I am hiding in the dark and I'm afraid to make a spark
How can I make a work of art if I'm a coward with my heart
Made my bed when I finally said that it's over
What I didn't know is that life would be so damn hard
These lights go out when the fear and the doubt overtake me
Losing sight of your own heart is impossible to disregard
I am lying in the dark and I'm afraid I'll make a spark
How can I make a work of art if I'm a coward with my heart
I've been wrong before
I don't want to be wrong again
I guess I am keeping score
What's a girl to do
Father time will win again
Is this the end
I am hiding in the dark, afraid I'll make a spark
But there's a fire in my heart
I am crying in the dark
I just want to make a spark
How I can I be a work of art
If I'm a coward with my heart
