What Sadness Means
You have no idea what sadness is
not until you plead just to be alright
as you force yourself to go to sleep
only to do the same the next nightYou have no idea what sadness is
not until you wake up just to mourn
for that heart of yours that still beats
but felt like you've lost a long time agoYou have no idea what sadness is
not until you are too tired for tears
as you wish for a long time dream
where anguish could no longer beYou have no idea what it is like to be in misery
not until you wear my shoes and become me
