it feels like you are screaming out in pain,
but no one can hear you.
it feels like you are falling appart,
but no one seems to see it.

you can feel your heart breaking,
you can hear the pieces of your heart falling on the ground.
it's only you that can feel it,
it's only you that can hear it.

you are in a dark place,
well, at least on the inside.
on the outside everything seems fine.
you look fine, hell you even look happy.

people would say that you are a rather happy person.
at least that's what you show them.
you don't let people see the darkness,
the pain and the sorrow.

you don't show it because you don't want people to see that part of you,
you don't want anyone's mercy.
you don't want them to see you mourning.

hiding your feelings, faking happiness.
that's what you do.
because that's what you have been taught to do,
so you keep doing it, keep up the fake smile,
this facade that seems to trick everyone.
