Give me a reason to keep believing that everything isn't misleading
And when I smile for you the skies are no longer gray
Cause Im a tear drop away from crying
And a few breaths away from dying
But maybe
Just maybe
If I pretend to be happy long enough
I might learn to be happy
But I just want to go one day
Just one
Without pretending to be happy
I know what it's like to die
I know how hard it is to smile
When all you want to do is frown
I know how to inflict pain on the outside
To make things numb on the inside
People think I'm so strong
And I'm so happy
When I'm only pretending nothing is wrong
Behind these innocent smiles I press
Lay words
Words that go unsaid
Words of love anger and hate
All repeating themselves inside my head
Don't be so fooled by the smile faking
Because inside I'm just breaking
Little by little
I just want to end it all
Should it be a trip?
Or should I fall
Will someone be there to catch me
Or will I be there forever
Lying without a sound
And as a strong girl
I keep my stuff in line
With tears running
I always seem to manage
To spit the simple words
I'm fine.
