Zeraphine

At a second glance
You thought you recognised despair
For a fraction of a second
You were searching for a reason
You pretended cheerfully,
But instead you tried to hide away
When everybody's laughter
Seems to rip you all apart
And your life carries on the same
And your life will be the same
Going back again to see
Stages from the recent past
But everywhere you turn
There is no chance to continue
Nothing really holds you back
From stepping through that yesterday
