filled with lies

filled with lies

what happened to that sweet little girl
who acted like she had the whole world
in her hands
i don't understand

why can't I keeping wearing the smile i wore
but i kind of remember when i once swore
that i'd never let my joy die
and that's why
i think the world is filled with lies

i can try to think back to when
i smiled all the time, it was way back then
i grinned widely with my teeth
and acted like the world was at my feet

i would laugh and jump and play
and I was happy every day
but i can't do that this time
and that's why
i think the world is filled with lies

.

i really need to stop-
