Late At Night

Late At Night - Ten Foot Pole

I walked in on you I couldn't believe my eyes

I forgot to knock and I apologize but I can't forget what I saw

I always wondered if you had a darker side

You wear a smile eyes but your are red like you just cried

Now will you explain

By day you wear your happy face

Everybody thinks you're perfect they don't know

Much about your pain

Late at night no one can see

You cut yourself to get back at me

Late at night I try to understand

Your friends all call you first when every little thing goes wrong

They know that they can count on you

But you don't call on them when you need a little help

You work it out alone

By day you wear your happy face

Everybody thinks you're perfect

They don't know much about your pain

Late at night no one can see

You cut yourself to get back at me

Late at night I try to understand

While I'm wishing on the stars you're collecting little scars

Late at night what did I do wrong that you deserve to bleed

Tell me just what should I do cause now I know your secret

I won't tell your friends at work

I won't tell your favorite niece

I won't tell your mom and dad

I won't tell anyone why you wear sweaters when it's hot

How will you explain the scars to your kids

Will you lie to each new person in your life

By day you wear your happy face

Everybody thinks you're perfect

They don't know much about your pain

Late at night no one can see

You cut yourself to get back at me

Late at night I try to understand

While I'm wishing on the stars you're collecting little scars

Late at night what did I do wrong that you deserve to bleed
