Every day I fake that smile, even I believe it after a while.

On and on goes this endless game, filled with regret and filled with shame.

A broken heart that I carry around, I call out for help but no one can hear a sound.

So on and on goes this game, no one cares enough to even remember my name.

A tear drop falls down on my bed, weeping and hurting as I rest my head.

No one bothers to see if I'm okay, words of compassion that they will never say.

A hug and a smile is all I need, must I get on my knees and plead?

I say a silent goodbye as I stare into your eyes, an end to a life that was filled with lies.

I pour that bleach into my cup, my final words are "I give up"
