Behind the smile

Broken place

I've grown up in this place

And what I've learned all these years

Became an addiction that I can't escape

I tried my best but it doesn't fade away

When you came into my life

You had no idea about my past life

You said you hate lies

And I said so do I

Wish I told you everything at that time

But I was afraid that you won't be mine

I gave you love, but it wasn't enough

I lied to you, I made you cry

I made you fall; I know it's all my fault

You deserve real happiness

And I deserve to be myself

And if we tried again,

We'd make the same mistake

And I don't want to bring you back,

To this broken place

I have to clean up the mess

And it's taking too long

To bandage all the wrong

Even if I've outgrown

You might be in someone else home

Hope you find peace and serenity wherever you go

A life full of happiness where you should belong
