She's happy

She has a smile on her face
Surrounded by friends
She looks so happy

She goes home
Her parents fighting
The baby crying
She goes to her room

She does what she needs to through the day
It's not good enough for her parents
With all A's
It's not good enough
In her own head
She's not good enough

At night when everything is silent
She starts to draw a picture
With a twist
Her canvas is her skin
The paint her blood
And the brush her blade

This is the story
Of the girl you see everyday
With a smile on her face
And surrounded by friends

This is the girl you think is ok
The one who has everything together

The one who's falling apart
Piece by piece
Silently watching
Wondering what everything will be like
When she's not here
