Days have come and gone
Since I fell, since you've left
Since I lost
And as the shock wears off
I keep calm
And I act as I don't care
As I never cared, never loved
My eyes dry and tearless
For I lost all my tears
Crying myself to sleep
Moving on with my life like nothing happened
Like I didn't fall, didn't break, didn't die
A cool mask of indifference
Perfectly slips into place
Just as I build this solid wall around my heart
Around my broken soul
My emotions kept down
My face calm, my eyes dry
But beneath my mask of indifference
I'm broken, my heart a shattered mess
Kept together by all your lies
Sweet words, empty encouragements
The sick feeling of being a plaything,
A whim, a novelty
Overwhelming my mind
Eating my soul, burning my heart
The truth suffocating me like smoke
The truth that I never meant a thing
Just a prettied-up puppet
Doing what my puppeteer demanded
But now the strings are broken
Just like my heart, my soul
Yet still I keep calm
And hide beneath my mask of indifference
My mask I put on the day you changed
The day you left
The day I found the truth
That part of my heart
Which loved you forever, died that day
Now all I have is emptiness in the place
What could've been love will never be
I fell that day, died that day
But even now as I erase every little thing
That we shared together
As I erase every single memory of you
And tear every picture of you to pieces
I keep my mask of indifference on
For now you've become a complete stranger to me
A complete stranger
Just like I've always been a stranger to you
