When Passion Cried

A practical joke?

They thought that might be her answer
She’s reaching out and wanting help
Whether the first time was real or not, she will understand
And in the end she will laugh,
They know her so well, after all.

It shall be one to free her of guilt and lies
Distract her broken heart
Put a smile on her face, happiness in her heart
And in the end she will laugh,
They know her so well, after all.

It shall heal, mend and free her very soul
Teach her self-awareness, self-acceptance and self-control
Disguise it with her own passions, desires, and needs
And in the end she will laugh,
They know her so well, after all.

Disregard her emotions, ignore her tears
Damn any rules, they will all have fun
It’s only a joke, who cares how it’s done.
And in the end she will laugh,
They know her so well, after all.

A practical joke?

Her mind spins, her eyes question
Distrust sets in giving way to a disbelieving heart
Withdraw, retreat and silence once again
In the end it wasn’t real, she learned of the joke, she cried
Yes they know her so well, after all.

Guilt was used, lies were added upon to gain her trust
Have her repeat her story, break her heart once more
The smile froze, the heart stopped
In the end it wasn’t real, she learned of the joke, she cried
Yes they know her so well, after all.

Healing with false passion, mending with magic tricks, her soul with empty promises
A lesson of shameful lust, non-acceptance and losing control
Rejecting her dreams of passions, desires and needs.
In the end it wasn’t real, she learned of the joke, she cried
Yes they know her so well, after all.

Continuous tearing of her emotions, never blind to her tears
Damn the rules, she did too, she should be having fun
What difference should it make if this time was all arranged
In the end it wasn’t real, she learned of the joke, she cried
Yes they know her so well, after all.

A practical joke?

She looks through eyes seeing nothing, the tears dry up
She moves about feeling nothing, the heart now closed
Her mind still reeling in disbelief at the cruelty
Because in the end it wasn’t real, and she doesn’t understand the joke
They know her not, they never will.
