Hidden Behind Smiling Tears

This is who I am

This is who I have to be,

hiding behind this smile of lies

too afraid to go outside;

lost and all scarred up,

look at the mess I've made

how can I fix what I've become?

No one understands

the darkness that races within

So many times I've tried to say goodbye;

So many attempts, I've failed tonight.

I'll just go back and relapse again

not like there's anyone to show me what's right?

Put up a smile to hide all my faults

Never gonna let them see these tears fall

trying to hide from all these adults;

Hopefully get some sleep at night

and dream of broken butterflies.
